pub struct ScalarCore<C: Curve> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Generic scalar type with core functionality.

This type provides a baseline level of scalar arithmetic functionality which is always available for all curves, regardless of if they implement any arithmetic traits.

serde support

When the optional serde feature of this create is enabled, [Serialize] and [Deserialize] impls are provided for this type.

The serialization is a fixed-width big endian encoding. When used with textual formats, the binary data is encoded as hexadecimal.
