One Way Functions
Discover the intriguing asymmetry between computing functions and their inverses, particularly in the context of RSA cryptography. Delve into the concept of one way functions, which are easy to compute but notoriously difficult to reverse. While the existence of these functions isn't mathematically proven, they are widely regarded as secure, relying on the challenge of factorizing large numbers. Explore how modular arithmetic forms the backbone of this cryptographic system, enabling the generation of public and private keys.In this clip
