+    Computes difficulty of a block using its header and parent header.
+
+    The difficulty is determined by the time the block was created after its
+    parent. The ``offset`` is calculated using the parent block's difficulty,
+    ``parent_difficulty``, and the timestamp between blocks. This offset is
+    then added to the parent difficulty and is stored as the ``difficulty``
+    variable. If the time between the block and its parent is too short, the
+    offset will result in a positive number thus making the sum of
+    ``parent_difficulty`` and ``offset`` to be a greater value in order to
+    avoid mass forking. But, if the time is long enough, then the offset
+    results in a negative value making the block less difficult than
+    its parent.
+
+    The base standard for a block's difficulty is the predefined value
+    set for the genesis block since it has no parent. So, a block
+    can't be less difficult than the genesis block, therefore each block's
+    difficulty is set to the maximum value between the calculated
