The smallest counterexample is for a power of 15, when the binary method needs six multiplications. Instead, form x 3 in two multiplications, then x 6 by squaring x 3 , then x 12 by squaring x 6 , and finally x 15 by multiplying x 12 and x 3 , thereby achieving the desired result with only five multiplications.
This method is an efficient variant of the 2 k-ary method. For example, to calculate the exponent 398, which has binary expansion (110 001 110) 2, we take a window of length 3 using the 2 k-ary method algorithm and calculate 1, x 3, x 6, x 12, x 24, x 48, x 49, x 98, x 99, x 198, x 199, x 398.
Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.
The number of steps to calculate the GCD of two natural numbers, a and b, may be denoted by T(a, b). [96] If g is the GCD of a and b, then a = mg and b = ng for two coprime numbers m and n. Then T(a, b) = T(m, n) as may be seen by dividing all the steps in the Euclidean algorithm by g. [97]
has common solutions since 5,7 and 11 are pairwise coprime. A solution is given by X = t 1 (7 × 11) × 4 + t 2 (5 × 11) × 4 + t 3 (5 × 7) × 6. where t 1 = 3 is the modular multiplicative inverse of 7 × 11 (mod 5), t 2 = 6 is the modular multiplicative inverse of 5 × 11 (mod 7) and t 3 = 6 is the modular multiplicative inverse of 5 × 7 ...
Because Montgomery reduction avoids the correction steps required in conventional division when quotient digit estimates are inaccurate, it is mostly free of the conditional branches which are the primary targets of timing and power side-channel attacks; the sequence of instructions executed is independent of the input operand values.
So, denotes the power set of S, that is the set of the functions from S to {,}, which can be identified with the set of the subsets of S, by mapping each function to the inverse image of 1. This fits in with the exponentiation of cardinal numbers , in the sense that | S T | = | S | | T | , where | X | is the cardinality of X .
In computing, the modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another, called the modulus of the operation.. Given two positive numbers a and n, a modulo n (often abbreviated as a mod n) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by n, where a is the dividend and n is the divisor.
