    Good algorithm to divide.
    Can be called "Division by successive aproximation".
    It's only necesary to generate a seed big enough to reduce the amount of iterations.

    Does anyone know that this means? Its the first sentence of this cryptography class and I think it means I should drop it: "We say that a nonzero b divides > a if a = mb for some > m, where > a,b, and > m are integers. That is, b divides > a if there is no remainder on division. The notation > b|a is commonly used to mean b divides > a. Also if > b|a , we say that b is a divisor of > a. The positive divisors of 24 are 1,2,3,4,6,8,12 and 24."

    Nice one (I'm aware that the length of the videos doesn't allow intuition, but for some, the steps may seem like magic).
    For the intuition about the set 'S', we can think about all 'b'-steps to the left and right (at the left is how many 'b' can we fit in 'a'). We don't allow it to go less than zero. It becomes apparent that S includes 'a' itself. If 'a' is negative, we simply extend the logic, and go 'b'-steps to the right until we reach something greater than zero, then start adding to the set 'S'.
    We then want to find 'r'. Of course it's the minimum of 'S', otherwise, we can subtract out another 'b'.
    For the final part, as we know 'r' and 'r'' are between 0 and 'b', then their difference must be less than 'b'. Now it's obvious that there is only one 'q' to reach between 0 and 'b', as each leap is at least 'b'-length, so anything else would escape.

    • @wiggles7976
      @wiggles7976 2 роки тому +1

      If we considered the other case that r >= r', you'd just rearrange the equation bq+r=bq'+r' to get r-r'=b(q'-q) and the same logic would apply. WLOG" just means that the other cases have the exact same steps and logic but with symbols swapped, and that we don't want to bother writing out something that's essentially identical.

    • @wiggles7976
      @wiggles7976 Рік тому +2

      @@salad7389 Since this is from a while ago I forget the details, but in logic, you can assume anything you want at any time. However, whatever consequences you get from an assumption are always chained to that assumption (at first), meaning you need to remember that they were a result of that assumption.
      If you want to forget about the WLOG business, you can do each case separately. You can first assume r'>=r and work out the consequence, and then assume r>=r' and work out the other consequence, and since both of these are the only possible options, then if their consequences are the same then their consequence has escaped the chains of the assumptions and is true regardless of the assumption.
      I hope my explanation provides some clarity. You can assume whatever you want at any time basically. We then used this logic theorem:
      P->Q. R->Q. P or R. Therefore Q.

    Not that good actually. The example are contrived and do not explore the realm of possibilities: a being negative, b being larger than a for instance. And because the result is proven over Z this could have been nice. The problem is that the intuition is not that of a problem: you want to measure a with b but the beauty reside in the fact that it is possible even with the case above.

    • @ACh389
      @ACh389 Місяць тому

      Note that r' - r is a non-negative integer which is a multiple of b. Also note that since r is non-negative r' - r is a non-negative integer which is strictly less than b and hence r' - r is a non-negative integer less than or equal to b - 1. Since the only divisor of b between 0 and b - 1 is 0 itself the desired result follows.
