Difficult:
So I think I understand the basics of elliptic curves and the addition rule seems fairly straight forward. It is interesting that from any two points you can generate a third just base on those points. I'm not sure how this is actually used in a crytpo system but we'll probably get to that in the next section.
Reflective:
It is impressive that we can drastically reduce our key size when using the elliptic curve method. I was wondering if elliptic curves can be used in both public key cryptography and symmetric key. I'm not sure if we really need to use it for both but I also haven't seen the actual encryption method.
