| The `validate` function aims to verify if an IPNS record is valid. First the record is unmarshalled, then the public key is obtained and finally the record is validated (signature and validity are verified). | ||
|
|
||
| The `select` function is responsible for deciding which ipns record is the best (newer) between two records. Both records are unmarshalled and their sequece numbers are compared. If the first record provided is the newer, the operation result will be `0`, otherwise the operation result will be `1`. |

Typo:
"Both records are unmarshalled and their sequence numbers are compared."

ipnsshould offer a validator capable of validate records, as well select which one is the best record between two of them (using the sequence number).This is particularly useful for validating libp2p records transparently, providing this validator.
Note:
go-ipnsalso provides this feature here
