The things that we spent the most time covering and applying I feel like are the RSA and ElGamal systems, we talked not only about the systems themselves but how to use them and sign them and do other things with them. I think that we will see them come up on the exam in probably multiple formats.
I expect that we will have to use the definitions that we are supposed to know to do the types of problems that are on the other side of the sheet. It seems like we will be combining the knowing part with the thinking through and application of the concepts. Probably a gnarly problem finding square roots and then having to use the Chinese Remainder Theorem... I hate the Chinese Remainder Theorem.
