A Fano Decoder in C

"Hard decision" Fano Sequential Decoder in C.

Choice of several r = 1/2, k = 32 polynomials (e.g., NASA standard).

On a 33 MHz 486, decodes 56 kilosymbols (28 kilobits) per second on average with input symbol error rate < 2%.

Proves feasibility of sequential decoding with modern amateur resources.
