Assignment 17

RSA encryption is an amazing thing.  However, I am a little confused by how to find d, the inverse of e mod (p - 1)(q -1).  I think that will be resolved just by seeing it done/actually doing it myself.

I was just amazed by how simple RSA is compared to DES and AES.  It is such a simple algorithm.  It's a beast to compute, but it's so simple, yet so secure.  I'm just impressed by how slick RSA is.
