| Feb 27, 2017 at 17:44 | comment | added | Sam OT | Ok, fair enough! I did wonder if that might be the case, but I'm very new to crypto, so didn't want to assume! That said, I'm doing a maths PhD currently and I've never seen anyone actually use $(f \circ g)(x) = g(f(x))$. When I learned about these things in first year, I was told that some do, but I guess I'd just come to think that no-one really did, certainly not in the mainstream. Looks like maybe I'm wrong! (Note that Morris is a probabilist by trade, like myself, not a compsci. Obviously we can crossover though!) | |
