#   How to run the test:
#
#   You need 2 files, this file "_lerc.py" and the Lerc dll (for Windows) or the
#   Lerc .so file (for Linux) next to it. Then
#
#   >>> import _lerc
#   >>> _lerc.test()

#   What's new in Lerc 4.0
#
#   An encoded image tile (2D, 3D, or 4D), of data type byte to double, can have
#   any value set to invalid. There are new and hopefully easy to use numpy
#   functions to decode from or encode to Lerc. They make use of the numpy
#   masked arrays.
#
#   (result, npmaArr, nDepth, npmaNoData) = decode_ma(lercBlob)
#
#   _ lercBlob is the compressed Lerc blob as a string buffer or byte array as
#     read in from disk or passed in memory.
#   _ result is 0 for success or an error code for failure.
#   _ npmaArr is the masked numpy array with the data and mask of the same shape.
#   _ nDepth == nValuesPerPixel. E.g., 3 for RGB, or 2 for complex numbers.
#   _ npmaNoData is a 1D masked array of size nBands. It can hold one noData
#     value per band. The caller can usually ignore it as npmaArr has all mask
#     info. It may be useful if the data needs to be Lerc encoded again.
#
#   (result, nBytesWritten, lercBlob) = encode_ma(npmaArr, nDepth, maxZErr,
#                                                 nBytesHint, npmaNoData = None)
#
#   _ npmaArr is the image tile (2D, 3D, or 4D) to be encoded, as a numpy masked
#     array.
#   _ nDepth == nValuesPerPixel. E.g., 3 for RGB, or 2 for complex numbers.
#   _ maxZErr is the max encoding error allowed per value. 0 means lossless.
#   _ nBytesHint can be
#     _ 0 - compute num bytes needed for output buffer, but do not encode it (faster than encode)
#     _ 1 - do both, compute exact buffer size needed and encode (slower than encode alone)
#     _ > 1 - create buffer of that given size and encode, if buffer too small encode will fail.
#   _ npmaNoData is a 1D masked array of size nBands. It can hold one noData
#     value per band. It can be used as an alternative to masks. It must be
#     used for the so called mixed case of valid and invalid values at the same
#     pixel, only possible for nDepth > 1. In most cases None can be passed.
#     Note Lerc does not take NaN as a noData value here. It is enough to set the
#     data values to NaN and not specify a noData value.
#
#   As an alternative to the numpy masked array above, there is also the option
#   to have data and masked as separate numpy arrays.
#
#   (result, npArr, npValidMask, npmaNoData) = decode_4D(lercBlob)
#
#   Here, npArr can be of the same shapes as npmaArr above, but it is a regular
#   numpy array, not a masked array. The mask is passed separately as a regular
#   numpy array of type bool. Note that in contrast to the masked array above,
#   True means now valid and False means invalid. The npValidMask can have the
#   following shapes:
#   _ None, all pixels are valid or are marked invalid using noData value or NaN
#   _ 2D or (nRows, nCols), same mask for all bands.
#   _ 3D or (nBands, nRows, nCols), one mask per band.

#   The _4D() functions may work well if all pixels are valid, or nDepth == 1,
#   and the shape of the mask here matches the shape of the data anyway.
#   In such cases the use of a numpy masked array might not be needed or
#   considered an overkill.
#
#   Similar for encode:
#
#   (result, nBytesWritten, lercBlob) = encode_4D(npArr, nDepth, npValidMask,
#                                                 maxZErr, nBytesHint, npmaNoData = None)
#
#   Note that for all encode functions, you can set values to invalid using a
#   mask, or using a noData value, or using NaN (for data types float or double).
#   Or any combination which is then merged using AND for valid (same as OR for invalid)
#   by the Lerc API.
#
#   The decode functions, however, return this info as a mask, wherever possible.
#   Only for nDepth > 1 and the mixed case of valid and invalid values at the same
#   pixel, a noData value is used internally. NaN is never returned by decode.
#
#   The existing Lerc 3.0 encode and decode functions can still be used.
#   Only for nDepth > 1 the mixed case cannot be encoded. If the decoder
#   should encounter a Lerc blob with such a mixed case, it will fail with
#   the error code LercNS::ErrCode::HasNoData == 5.

# Lerc version 4.0 can also support the mixed case of valid and invalid values at the same pixel.
# As this case is rather special, instead of changing the valid / invalid byte mask representation,
# the concept of a noData value is used.

# set the mask value to False, not masked, and the double value to the noData value used.
# Note that Lerc will push the noData value to the valid / invalid byte mask wherever possible.
# On Decode, Lerc only returns the noData values used for those bands where the byte mask cannot represent
