Module curve25519_dalek::constants [−] [src]

This module contains various constants (such as curve parameters and useful field elements like sqrt(-1)), as well as lookup tables of pre-computed points.

Constants

A	In Montgomery form y² = x³+Ax²+x, Curve25519 has A=486662.
BASEPOINT	Basepoint has y = 4/5.
BASE_CMPRSSD	Basepoint has y = 4/5.
EIGHT_TORSION	The 8-torsion subgroup Ɛ[8].
HALF	Precomputed value of 1/2 (mod p).
HALF_P_MINUS_1_BYTES	(p-1)/2, in little-endian bytes.
HALF_Q_MINUS_1_BYTES	HALF_Q_MINUS_1_BYTES is (2^255-20)/2 expressed in little endian form.
MSQRT_M1	Precomputed value of the other square root of -1 (mod p), i.e., MSQRT_M1 = -SQRT_M1.
SQRT_M1	Precomputed value of one of the square roots of -1 (mod p)
SQRT_MINUS_A	SQRT_MINUS_A is sqrt(-486662)
SQRT_MINUS_HALF	SQRT_MINUS_HALF is sqrt(-1/2)
