# RSA Algorithm
|
||
|
|
* Python script that encrypts and decrypts a text based on [RSA algorithm](https://people.csail.mit.edu/rivest/Rsapaper.pdf)
|
||
|
|
* It involves the concept of modular arithmatic and euler's theorem.
|
||
|
|
* It is also based on the idea that factorizing large numbers requires years.
|
||
|
|
* Here, the (a,n) are kept public and (p,q,b) are kept private.
