Struct Ciphertext 

pub struct Ciphertext<P> {
    pub ephemeral_public: P,
    pub blinded_message: P,
}

ElGamal ciphertext consisting of a pair $(c_1, c_2)$.

The ciphertext is formed as:

$$ c_1 = rG, \quad c_2 = M + r \mathsf{PK} $$

where:

• $r$ is a random
• $G$ is the generator of the group
• $PK$ is the recipient’s public key
• $M$ is the plaintext message point

This struct stores the two ciphertext components.

Fields

ephemeral_public: P

The ephemeral public component $c_1 = r G$.

blinded_message: P

The blinded message component $c_2 = M + r \mathsf{PK}$.

Trait Implementations

impl<P: Clone> Clone for Ciphertext<P>

fn clone(&self) -> Ciphertext<P>

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl<P: Debug> Debug for Ciphertext<P>

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<P: PartialEq> PartialEq for Ciphertext<P>

fn eq(&self, other: &Ciphertext<P>) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
