Well just implementing them to specification wouldn't take much grey matter... So are you optimizing for speed, or taking extra precautions against side-channel attacks, or maybe both? I can see how writing in Go would add to the challenge, then.

I want to implement an amazing Shell framework . Each command would be a all loaded by the shell and would provide standard functions and interfaces and shit . Like commands would register their options and he shell would process command line for them. Also an interface to report progress of an operation back to he shell which can display this as it a
Sees fit . So shells could be written different platforms and interface with existing command modules. Also a shell could be graphical and disiplay an options dialog for the command line options, generated dynamically by querying the command's options. A command could query if the shell Supports graphics and request a canvas to draw on instead of writing to Stdout

Holy shit I'm a bit drunk and posting from smart phone. I ment each command is a dll or .so or .dylib etc. With standard exported functions for shell to use

Not impressive either. Having them done in assembly language would barely touch the "challenge" level.
I suppose this does not hold for RSA, though. In C it would be challenging enough (without depending on GMP).
Some of the people who post here might be geniuses or at least very good at programming but unfortunately, because of this (or your autism, the chicken or the egg?) you can't relate to people very well . . . so you spend all your time writing boring obtuse mathematical bull shit that other people will never understand, relate to, or appreciate.
That is also why you will never be rich. Along comes a mediocre programmer coding in Objective-C who writes a shitty game (be it angry birds or what ever) and becomes rich + successful. Such is the downfall of autism; such is the downfall of the OP and of /prog/.
This post brought to you by satori and all things autism. I truly hope you have a fun time implementing your cryptographic algorithms OP.

I'm guessing any one of you would trade your extensive knowledge of SICP for 10 million USD thus monetary wealth > intellectual wealth.

There's this fag that sold this system i'm supposed to rewrite to the company i work at. Thing is written in delphi (for UI basically) but all the business logic is inside ms sql server stored procs. Most terribad shit I've ever seen, but this guy is laughing all the way to the bank. Why ? Because he explains everything single stupid facet of this program in such a way that it makes the powers that be think he's a genius. Ye olde BBB. This guy can talk for 8 hours straight about a stupidly simple localisation framework. When I talk about my loc framework in comparison i go, 'yeah, its a framework, gives u ability 2 different languages'. He wins, I lose.

You want to logically right shift intellectual wealth for monetary wealth (you know, like in Java)?
