Cuckoo Cycle Rust Implementation

This implementation of thbe Cuckoo Cycle proof of work algorithm aims to be simple and easy to follow for beginners in the cryptography and computer science space. Hence, it is far from optimised.

What is Cuckoo Cycle?

Cuckoo cycle is a graph theory based proof of work algorithm that works by finding a cycle on a pseudorandomly generated graph. The cycle is easy to verify once found, but finding a cycle is a much harder task and serves as proof that computational resources have been put into finding the cycle.

cuckoo-pow's Issues

Implement cycle verification

As per title. Shouldn't be too hard as it would only consist of verifying that each edge in the proof incidents on a node twice and only twice.

Create Cuckoo graph

Can only be done after #1 is complete.

Need to read mathspec properly and create the graph to solve for the cuckoo cycle properly.

Graph structure is already made in src/cuckoo.rs. We need to add vertices and edges as per the mathspec to the graph structure.
