Argh! Walter you are driving me mad! :-) Thank you for putting up the slides, and I really want to grok this, but I'm struggling to work through even the simplest of examples. I need the kindergarten version :-( What am I doing wrong? I'm trying a very simple example. I'm going to choose, p = 3, q = 5 and a message m = 42 Looking at page 11 on the math_deck.pdf line by line line 2: N = 15. I'm going to pick g = 240. I think it needs to be a multiple of N that is greater than N*N, correct? line 3: I'll pick zeta = 21. I think it needs to be greater than N. Line 4: (240^42 x 21^15) mod 225 = 0 That's suspicious. ...and if I play with my free choices of m, g and zeta I always get zero. Help! I get the gist of the flow through the deck, but I want to work through my own examples from top to bottom. Regards, Tim
