Test Questions

I think that RSA is probably the most important thing that we've learned about in these sections. It seems like we spent the most time on that, and it was the only cryptosystem that we discussed that is actually commonly used.
I expect the questions on the test to be pretty similar to what we have seen on the homework assignments. Just the ones that can be done without the computer though.
I think that I need to work on pretty much everything. I understand how most of the systems work (other than ElGamal) but the attacks and stuff are still pretty hazy as the the theorems that the attacks are based upon.
The quantum stuff sounds like it could be pretty interesting, but I'm up for pretty much anything.
