 In this assignment you will need to implement several zero-knowledge proof
 schemes for languages involving discrete logarithms. This assignment is intended
 to provide:
 
-1. a hands-on way to understand group theory
-2. practice implementing variations of a cryptographic protocol
-3. reinforcement of the concepts behind analyzing a protocol with "security
