Preface: What is This? The RSA cipher is a fascinating example of how some of the most abstract mathematical subjects find applications in the real world. Few are the mathematicians who study creatures like the prime numbers with the hope or even desire for their discoveries to be useful outside of their own domain. But every now and then that is exactly what happens. This text explains the mathematics behind RSA -- how and why it works. The intended audience is just about anyone who is interested in the topic and who can remember a few basic facts from algebra: what a variable is, the difference between a prime number and a composite number, and the like. http://www.muppetlabs.com/~breadbox/txt/rsa.html
