The hardest part of the reading was the part about using elliptic curves to represent plaintext.
Elliptic curves are definitely strange and not one of the most intuitive mathematical concepts that I've encountered. But I definitely do want to know more about how they can be used in a cryptosystem. Looking at elliptic curves mod p seems like it is definitely be a lot simpler than just looking at elliptic curves on the real numbers.
