There's no such thing as "beautiful code"
Beauty is in the design, the concept, the algorithm.
The closer you approach the design, the concept, the algorithm -- the more beautiful the code, but the code itself is never beautiful.

Why would this method of discrete logarithm finding not work? Okay I see the logic of your reasoning. It seem I do not have something here. |

Any efficient text-based steganographic schemes? You could automatically replace words with 'synonyms'. I'm sure it would if it was very frequent. Although there must be lots of activity on there anyway. If you need high thruput...maybe a network of twitter robots faithfully reposting various news articles 24/7....there's enough content and control in such a stream you could set up some stego on it. |

Why would this method of discrete logarithm finding not work? Cool, thanks for the suggestion. I will do this eventually. |

Why would this method of discrete logarithm finding not work? Thanks for that, that is really awesome! (b^i).F just means F multiplied by ith power of b. It looks good. |

How to best obtain bit sequences from throwing normal dice? Good point. I didn't see that. |

Discrete log analog of ECM factoring algorithm? The exponent of a factor of g (g = b**k) is smaller than k. |

Discrete log analog of ECM factoring algorithm? It is kind of equivalent. If you take m = b**i n = b**j and compute mn mod p, finding i+j is the discrete log. So if you can factor mn mod p, where one factor is a known power of b, that reduces the problem to determining the exponent of the other factor, which is by definition smaller (outside of its congruence class mod p). |

Question about use of IV in this cipher Why should it be so independent? |

Question about use of IV in this cipher By the initial encryption do you mean where the IV is encrypted? Or when the plaintext is? |

Question about use of IV in this cipher Okay concerns : 1) It's not CSPRING, I generate two 1184 bit random numbers via python's random.randint() (37*32 bit words packed), then take the middle 1184 bits of the product. I think it's good, but not great. 2) Even though the key is scheduled I am concerned that a) the scheduled key_a is used to encrypt the IV, b) the (unscheduled) key_a is combined with the (unencrypted) IV and rescheduled, then the (encrypted) IV is prepended to the ciphertext. It just seems that could not someone get some correlation from that prepended encrypted IV? Even though all stream outputs are incompressible. |
