Aryabhata algorithm

Aryabhata algorithm

Aryabhata algorithm is an algorithm to solve indeterminate Diophantine equations and for residue arithmetic. It is first described in the mathematician-astronomer Aryabhata's book "Aryabhatiya" (499).

In recent years, it has been used for cryptographic applications.
