Hello, I was wondering if you can please help me understand this question more better. I received help previously, but still seem not 100% confident even though I am starting to understand the algorithm. Not being disrespectful to the kind individual that helped me earlier, I am thankful for his or her assistance!!! again, I want to thank you for your time and help!

Question:

a).

Apply the left-to-right binary exponentiation algorithm to compute a^11

b).

Apply the right-to-left binary exponentiation algorithm to compute a^11

Explanation / Answer

Both the Algorithms come under modular exponentiation. Modular exponentiation is a type of exponentiation performed over a modulus. It is particularly useful in computer science, especially in the field of cryptography. A "modular exponentiation" calculates the remainder when a positive integer b (the base) raised to the e-th power (the exponent), and the total quantity is divided by a positive integer m, called the modulus. In symbols, this is, given base b, exponent e, and modulus m. c = b to the power 3 (mod m )
