9.1-9.4, due on November 5

What was the most difficult part of the material for you?

The most difficult part of the material was the section about the ElGamal signature scheme. There are more components of the signature than the RSA signature, and keeping track of all the pieces is more difficult.

What was the most interesting part of the material?

I think the idea of digitally signing documents is very interesting. I think it is a very cool idea to be able to prove that somebody has signed something. I think that this is a key part of the technology behind things like bitcoins.
