# Compact binary encoding for Go

The Go standard library package

[encoding/binary](http://golang.org/pkg/encoding/binary/) provides

encoding/decoding of *fixed-size* Go values or slices of same. This package

extends support to arbitrary, variable-sized values by prefixing these values

with their varint-encoded size, recursively. It expects the encoded type and

decoded type to match exactly and makes no attempt to reconcile or check for

any differences.
