@boneidol Guess I should, too. Could be fun. Do you guess rusty math minds can get into it? -

I'm pretty sure that anybody with basic math can do these things. It's an entry level course, but too a complicated discipline. Some simple probability. Understanding of remainders. I don't think what cryptographers do is math though... It just looks like it in places.
