NormalizeLow

Trait NormalizeLow 

Source
pub trait NormalizeLow: Sized {
    // Required method
    fn normalize_low(&self) -> Option<Self>;
}
Expand description

Normalize a scalar (i.e. ECDSA S) to the lower half the field, as described in BIP 0062: Dealing with Malleability.

Required Methods§

Source

fn normalize_low(&self) -> Option<Self>

Normalize scalar to the lower half of the field (i.e. negate it if it’s larger than half the curve’s order).

Returns an Option with a new scalar if the original wasn’t already low-normalized.

May be implemented to work in variable time.

Dyn Compatibility§

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
