cryptography

A Minimal Dependency Library for Cryptography Written in C

Introduction

Welcome to the anshulkamath's big unsigned integer library! This library is the second iteration of such a library. The original repository can be found on anshulkamath's GitHub here!

How to use this library

This library will offer implementations for several cryptographic algorithms, such as ECDSA and RSA. Furthermore, this library will build the infrastructure it needs from scratch. Namely, we implement our own big, unsigned integer operations. Integers are represented as arrays of 32-bit, unsigned integers, where each digit (or "limb", as we call it) is a successive power of 2^32. Finally, we represent these arrays in little-endian, so arr[0] represents the least significant digit while arr[1] represents the most significant digit.
