Function rebuild_merkle_root

pub fn rebuild_merkle_root(
    leaf: B256,
    generalized_index: usize,
    branch: &[B256],
) -> B256

Rebuilds a Merkle tree root from a leaf value and its branch proof.

Given a leaf value, its generalized index in the tree, and the sibling hashes along the path to the root, this function reconstructs the Merkle root by iteratively hashing the current node with its sibling at each level.

Arguments

• leaf - The leaf value to start reconstruction from
• generalized_index - The generalized index of the leaf in the Merkle tree
• branch - Slice of sibling hashes along the path from leaf to root

Returns

The reconstructed Merkle root hash
