Exploring Rivest, Shamir, Adelman algorithm, but hoping someone out there is interested in very large number manipulations. RSA suggests choosing two prime 100 digit numbers p and q for beginning of key generation. These numbers are obviously beyond the long type of a C program. Other than using Mathematica or Maple, I would like to use C or perferrably C++. Just some basics such as multiplication, addition, subtraction, division, mod, etc over the Z set.
