/**
 * Helper class for contracts
 *
 * A contract owns additional data, which is split in 8 byte blocks.
 * The content is encoded in hexadecimal representation and big endianness.
 * This class facilitates access to these data. The term "index" is used to address
 * these 8 byte blocks
 *
 * @example
 * A contract may have the following data
 *
 * ```
 * 010000000000000000e1f5050000000000000000000000003eba832d8f2c82fe0048e80100000000
 * ```
 *
 * Then it can be split into five data sections each 8 bytes (16 chars in hex) and indexed like shown
 *
 * ```
 * 0100000000000000 00e1f50500000000 0000000000000000 3eba832d8f2c82fe 0048e80100000000
 *
 * |------ 0 ------|------ 1 -------|------ 2 -------|------ 3 -------|------ 4 ------| = Indices
 *
 * ```
 *
 * @example Usage
 *
 * ```ts
 * const client = LedgerClientFactory.createClient({nodehost: "https://europe.signum.network"});
 * const nft = await client.contracts.getContract("9482276719950823724");
 * const dataView - new ContractDataView(nft);
 * const ownerId = dataView.getVariableAsDecimal(0);
 * const currentPrice = Amount.fromPlanck(dataview.getVariableAsDecimal(2));
 * ```
