    raw encoding
        Conversion of public, private keys and signatures (which in
        mathematical sense are integers or pairs of integers) to strings of
        bytes that does not use any special tags or encoding rules.
        For any given curve, all keys of the same type or signatures will be
        encoded to byte strings of the same length. In more formal sense,
        the integers are encoded as big-endian, constant length byte strings,
        where the string length is determined by the curve order (e.g.
        for NIST256p the order is 256 bits long, so the private key will be 32
        bytes long while public key will be 64 bytes long). The encoding of a
        single integer is zero-padded on the left if the numerical value is
        low. In case of public keys and signatures, which are comprised of two
        integers, the integers are simply concatenated.

    uncompressed
        The most common formatting specified in PKIX standards. Specified in
        X9.62 and SEC1 standards. The only difference between it and
        :term:`raw encoding` is the prepending of a 0x04 byte. Thus an
        uncompressed NIST256p public key encoding will be 65 bytes long.

    compressed
        The public point representation that uses half of bytes of the
        :term:`uncompressed` encoding (rounded up). It uses the first byte of
        the encoding to specify the sign of the y coordinate and encodes the
        x coordinate as-is. The first byte of the encoding is equal to
        0x02 or 0x03. Compressed encoding of NIST256p public key will be 33
        bytes long.

    hybrid
        A combination of :term:`uncompressed` and :term:`compressed` encodings.
        Both x and y coordinates are stored just as in :term:`compressed`
        encoding, but the first byte reflects the sign of the y coordinate. The
        first byte of the encoding will be equal to 0x06 or 0x7. Hybrid
        encoding of NIST256p public key will be 65 bytes long.

    PEM
        The acronym stands for Privacy Enhanced Email, but currently it is used
        primarily as the way to encode :term:`DER` objects into text that can
        be either easily copy-pasted or transferred over email.
        It uses headers like ``-----BEGIN <type of contents>-----`` and footers
        like ``-----END <type of contents>-----`` to separate multiple
        types of objects in the same file or the object from the surrounding
        comments. The actual object stored is base64 encoded.

    DER
        Distinguished Encoding Rules, the way to encode :term:`ASN.1` objects
        deterministically and uniquely into byte strings.

    ASN.1
        Abstract Syntax Notation 1 is a standard description language for
        specifying serialisation and deserialisation of data structures in a
        portable and cross-platform way.

    bytes-like object
        All the types that implement the buffer protocol. That includes
        ``str`` (only on python2), ``bytes``, ``bytesarray``, ``array.array`
        and ``memoryview`` of those objects.
        Please note that ``array.array` serialisation (converting it to byte
        string) is endianess dependant! Signature computed over ``array.array``
        of integers on a big-endian system will not be verified on a
        little-endian system and vice-versa.
