Comment (by dlucas):
Sorry if wrote my answer in a confusing manner, I'm not against
implementing the mechanism to discover the minimum distance and the
covering radius and dynamically update decoder type, I was against
implementing the generic mechanism here. Your suggestions definitely make
sense here, I just jumped directly into the bigger picture instead of
focusing on this instance of the problem. My bad!
I think we actually agree on this. I'll do that in the morrow.
> Hmm, yes it's an interesting idea. I could imagine that the decorator be
backed by some functions that should be callable directly.
That's what I have in mind. I read more carefully the documentation, it
seems interesting to do, and definitely possible.
The reason I thought about decorators in the first place is because, we,
as usual, want a mechanism which has the best genericity/simplicity ratio.
And with a decorator, if one wants to implement his own methods, one only
has to add a decorator over some specific methods, which is definitely
simple! Well, if you (or Julien, or anyone) can see a better mechanism,
please tell me!
