Cryptography
A finite field is a mathematical structure that consists of a finite number of elements, where addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division (except by zero) are defined and behave according to the rules of field theory. Finite fields play a crucial role in cryptography, especially in elliptic curve digital signatures, where they enable secure and efficient computations on elliptic curves over these fields.
congrats on reading the definition of finite field. now let's actually learn it.
