And how can we do arithmetic on an elliptic curve? ________ Standards for Efficent Cryptography Group: http://www.secg.org Elliptic Curve Addition Modulo p Applet: https://cdn.rawgit.com/andreacorbelli... ________ Last video: http://bit.ly/2Ms3VCr The CHALKboard:    / chalkboard   Find the CHALKboard on Facebook: http://bit.ly/CHALKboard _____________________ Interested in the person behind the camera?
