Method Crypto.DH.Parameters()->validate()


Method validate

bool validate(int(0..) effort)

Description

Validate that the DH Parameters doesn't have obvious security weaknesses. It will first attempt to verify the prime p using Donald Knuth's probabilistic primality test with provided effort. This has a chance of pow(0.25,effort) to produce a false positive. An effort of 0 skipps this step. The second test verifies that g is of high order.
