1. What was the most difficult part of the reading for you
Well, the reading was short, so I'll make this short. I kind of got lost reading about the RSA Algorithm. I just got lost in the math of it all... with choosing the primes and the e and the... everything. Mostly I felt confused about that, but that could be because I'm just kind of tired....
2. What was the most interesting part of the reading for you?
The most interesting part of the reading for me was reading about the one-way function/authentication stuff. I mostly thought that was interesting because I was trying to figure out how two functions could be public knowledge, and you'd still be able to encrypt/decrypt something. Then, on top of that, to add the "Authentication" seemed kind of genius to me.
