link-rep

Parse and serialize the textual link-representation format used by the TopLink pipeline.

Installation

pip install linkrep

Quick start

Create link_rep.LinkRep() and call deserialize(text) or serialize().

PD codes are lists of four-entry crossings. Each arc label must occur exactly twice. Functions validate their inputs and do not mutate caller-owned PD-code lists unless explicitly documented.

Development

Use Python 3.10 or newer for Python packages. Build distributions with poetry build. Run the package's tests or examples before publishing. C++ projects require a modern standards-compliant compiler.
