Comment (by kcrisman):
A few comments on this:
* You can open a separate ticket for the `BlumGoldwasser` stuff, no need
to fix it here.
* You should use the `TestSuite` functionality, I guess, to ensure that
all such possible errors are caught.
* One possible option would be to make those spaces be
`NotImplementedError` or something, and then document it as such.
* Another one is that, considering
{{{
class PublicKeyCryptosystem(Cryptosystem):
r"""
The base class for asymmetric or public-key cryptosystems.
"""
}}}
is the entirety of the constructor for `PublicKeyCryptosystem`, and that
several of the systems in the `crypto/` folder don't even inherit from
`Cryptosystem`, one could just ignore this altogether and not inherit from
it if there seems to be no reason to.
* Or you could use integers.
* Or you could build it in but then `RSACryptosystem(n)` would be needed.
That's sort of like how the other ciphers require you to put in the
alphabet, so it isn't totally farfetched.
