if gcd(a,m)=1, for a*a inverse==1 mod m is it better to find a invese=a^(m-2) mod m by binary exponentiation modulo m or is it more time efficient by extended euclids algorithm for large 'm'?
I dunno, why don't you think about it some? How are you going to land a sweet outsourced job if you ask others to do your homework?

If Sarath is, in fact, a student who will soon be looking for work, he may do just fine. Getting a tech job has little to do with how much you know or how well you can do the work. Most of getting a job, at least in the US, has to do with putting together a resume that will get you a call-back, and with impressing the HR guys during the first interview. Neither of these need have any bearing on actual qualifications. Once he has a job in the tech field, someone with people skills sufficient to get others to do his work for him will get farther ahead than the techie who actually does the work. Of course, it's easier for a woman to pull this off in the typical tech-heavy company -- a woman just has to chat with the guys, whereas a man will have to actively brown-nose the bosses or ask favors of his co-workers.

Bzzt. Right answer, wrong reason. Government don't "cause" markets. Cheers, RAH -- ----------------- R. A.
