+;;; This is an implementation of the WHIRLPOOL cryptographic hashing function
+;;;
+;;; The implementation is a rather direct implementation based on the 2003
+;;; revised version of the original paper (“The WHIRLPOOL Hashing Function”) by
+;;; Barreto and Rijmen. It is optimized for clarity, not performance.
