/* Quick overview: QR code composed of 2D array of modules (a rectangular
 * area that conveys one bit of information); some modules are fixed to help
 * the recognition of the code, and remaining data modules are further divided
 * into 8-bit code words which are augumented by Reed-Solomon error correcting
 * codes (ECC). There could be multiple ECCs, in the case the code is so large
 * that it is helpful to split the raw data into several chunks.
 *
 * The number of modules is determined by the code's "version", ranging from 1
 * (21x21) to 40 (177x177). How many ECC bits are used is determined by the
 * ECC level (L/M/Q/H). The number and size (and thus the order of generator
 * polynomial) of ECCs depend to the version and ECC level.
