=head2 encode

Encodes the given input to RLP

Usage:

    encode(hex string /  hex array reference) ->  encoded bytes

=over 4

=item * C<$input> hexadecimal string or reference to an hexadecimal string array

=back

Return the encoded bytes

=head2 decode

Decode the given input from RLP to the specific return type

Usage:

    decode(RLP encoded bytes) -> hexadecimal string / array reference

=over 4

=item * C<$input> RLP encoded bytes

=back

Returns an hexadecimals string or an array reference in case of multiple items
