//! # BABE (Blind Assignment for Blockchain Extension)
//!
//! BABE is a slot-based block production mechanism which uses a VRF PRNG to
//! randomly perform the slot allocation. On every slot, all the authorities
//! generate a new random number with the VRF function and if it is lower than a
//! given threshold (which is proportional to their weight/stake) they have a
//! right to produce a block. The proof of the VRF function execution will be
//! used by other peer to validate the legitimacy of the slot claim.
//!
//! The engine is also responsible for collecting entropy on-chain which will be
//! used to seed the given VRF PRNG. An epoch is a contiguous number of slots
//! under which we will be using the same authority set. During an epoch all VRF
//! outputs produced as a result of block production will be collected on an
//! on-chain randomness pool. Epoch changes are announced one epoch in advance,
//! i.e. when ending epoch N, we announce the parameters (randomness,
//! authorities, etc.) for epoch N+2.
//!
//! Since the slot assignment is randomized, it is possible that a slot is
//! assigned to multiple validators in which case we will have a temporary fork,
//! or that a slot is assigned to no validator in which case no block is
//! produced. Which means that block times are not deterministic.
//!
//! The protocol has a parameter `c` [0, 1] for which `1 - c` is the probability
//! of a slot being empty. The choice of this parameter affects the security of
//! the protocol relating to maximum tolerable network delays.
//!
//! In addition to the VRF-based slot assignment described above, which we will
//! call primary slots, the engine also supports a deterministic secondary slot
//! assignment. Primary slots take precedence over secondary slots, when
//! authoring the node starts by trying to claim a primary slot and falls back
//! to a secondary slot claim attempt. The secondary slot assignment is done
//! by picking the authority at index:
//!
//! `blake2_256(epoch_randomness ++ slot_number) % authorities_len`.
//!
//! The secondary slots supports either a `SecondaryPlain` or `SecondaryVRF`
//! variant. Comparing with `SecondaryPlain` variant, the `SecondaryVRF` variant
//! generates an additional VRF output. The output is not included in beacon
//! randomness, but can be consumed by parachains.
//!
//! The fork choice rule is weight-based, where weight equals the number of
//! primary blocks in the chain. We will pick the heaviest chain (more primary
//! blocks) and will go with the longest one in case of a tie.
//!
//! An in-depth description and analysis of the protocol can be found here:
//! <https://research.web3.foundation/en/latest/polkadot/block-production/Babe.html>
