Feeling good about my math class this semester. Doing the RSA cipher which means prime number decomposition, fermat factorisation, euclid theorum, etc

Spent way too long on the first question of the assessment but in my defence, I was making small stupid mistakes that was throwing the whole thing out.

Next one using mathematical induction and proof work which I am very rusty at so will do a catch up and then tackle second half of assessment :]

#og #mathematics my beloved #mathblr #when i was doing the fast exponentiation for caclulating b^dmodN #I typed it in my calc wrong once so got the wrong mod answer on one singular line #then when I caught that I missed one of the needed lines when I was multiplying them together #and I initially just trialled and errored it in excel to get N=pq and had to spend a good hour going over fermat factorisation #just so i could show how to get p and q #ended up downloading someone's python algorithm and went through that to figure it out lol #but I am pleased with my work #and I wrote it nice and neatly to be scanned in later when the second half is done as well #still got to work on my database assessment but I am less interested lol #its just a basic entities and relations so its not very exciting #just a bit time consuming for the case study we've been given
