2.9-2.11, due on september 20

the LFSR was confusing for me, as was the blum-blum-shub pseudo-random bit generator. maybe i missed it, but i wasn’t totally clear as to what the least significant bit was. it could be that it literally is the least significant bit, as in the one of least importance. i don’t think that’s really what it is though.

it still blows my mind that there are unbreakable codes. every time one is mentioned, i just can’t process it. i would love to be someone that came up with one, but i don’t think i have the ability to. most codes are unbreakable for me! it’s just crazy to think that there is a method that has created a one-time code. i can’t wrap my head around it. people are so cool!
