I am interested in building a stand alone Rice Encoder/Decoder, using FLAC source code as a starting point. I've read the theory behind it, and I am very interested in info theory. However, I am struggling with how exactly I would implement the theory in code. I'm a newbie to computer science (only 1 year experience). I have read the format and documentation links on the FLAC website, as well as the archives of the mailing list...and I haven't found anyone doing something similar. I am new to doxygen and have never read or written anything as large as FLAC before. Right now, I am looking in the src code of libFLAC, (I am looking through stream_encoder.c in libFLAC src code), but its really confusing to someone who just learned what ./configure meant today.
So any help in where I can find where the Rice encoder/decoder is implemented in the code (in libFLAC or libFLAC++) would be super helpful.

P.S. I totally appreciate the very clean code and documentation! It's making the learning much less painful than I think it could be.
