Struct Signature 

pub struct Signature<C: PrimeCurve> { /* private fields */ }

ECDSA signature (fixed-size). Generic over elliptic curve types.

Serialized as fixed-sized big endian scalar values with no added framing:

• r: field element size for the given curve, big-endian
• s: field element size for the given curve, big-endian

Both r and s MUST be non-zero.

For example, in a curve with a 256-bit modulus like NIST P-256 or secp256k1, r and s will both be 32-bytes and serialized as big endian, resulting in a signature with a total of 64-bytes.

ASN.1 DER-encoded signatures also supported via the Signature::from_der and Signature::to_der methods.

serde support

When the serde feature of this crate is enabled, it provides support for serializing and deserializing ECDSA signatures using the Serialize and Deserialize traits.

The serialization uses a hexadecimal encoding when used with “human readable” text formats, and a binary encoding otherwise.
