We all know S-S-S or side-side-side. But when I said angle-side-side people thought I was being an ass.
But it turns out that thread has similarities to crypto and public key functions.

I hear you. But what if you took a shape (I used a triangle.) and set all of its properties to be an algorithm to encipher?
I don’t have this quite worked out but you could have a secret shape and infinite properties and equations to refer to.
It would be difficult to have a public key to encrypt the message. You’d still need a trap door function. In other words, the challenge is the one way function.
But history is important. I document all my math and you should too. I have 20+ years of little projects.
Why do you think I posted to Simple Yet Interesting so much. I truly want to break the one way function, but some is to document my work.
If everyone on the message board did this it would be endless content. We wouldn’t have time to discuss politics and the U.S. dollar would not be converted to bitcoin because the digital signature would not be secure.
