Subject: Re: [PHC] Proposed changes to author's code

I just started.  At https://github.com/buggywhip/yarn_py you will find the following.

yarn_wrapper.py is a ctypes Python wrapper for the Yarn Password Hashing Candidate.

yarn_demo.py is a simple demo program to illustrate various calls.

yarn_kats.py converts and runs the provided KATs.
   
To compile an OSX .dylib:
    
gcc -dynamiclib -arch x86_64 -o libyarn.dylib yarn.c
    
Python wrapper API:
    
from yarn_wrapper import *

hash = yarn(outlen, pswd, salt, pers, 
            t_cost, m_cost, par, initrnd, m_step)

# Note: this version of blake2b does NOT support a key
hash = yarn_blake2b(outlen, pswd, salt, pers)

The goal is to now create a Python wrapper to support the generic API.
