I am new to programming and I have a coding homework. We have to implement RSA using MPIR. I generated p and q the best way I could think of. I could not make them 512 bits, but I will continue as it is. I also did not test for primality yet. I will deal with the byte size and primality test if I have time.
My problem is regarding finding Phi(n) = (p-1)*(q-1). I manage to find p, q and N, but Phi(n) and N give the same result. I checked the functions in the MPIR document multiple times and I tried two similar functions for substraction as you will see, but still no luck. (I did not write the code for q here as it is a repetition of p.)
Can someone guide me? I would like to say thank you in advance.
#define _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <mpir.h>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
using std::cout;
using std::cin;
int main()
{
mpz_t p;
mpz_init(p);
mpz_t randint;
mpz_init(randint);
gmp_randstate_t state;
gmp_randinit_mt(state);
mpir_ui seed;
cout << "Please choose a number for the seed of the random number
generator:";
cin >> seed;
gmp_randseed_ui(state, seed);
mpz_urandomb(randint, state, 512);
mpz_t limit;
mpz_init(limit);
mpz_t winner;
mpz_init(winner);
mpz_ui_pow_ui(limit, 2, 511);
mpz_ior(winner, limit, randint);
mpz_next_prime_candidate(p, winner, state);
gmp_randclear(state);
mpz_clear(randint);
mpz_clear(winner);
mpz_t q;
mpz_init(q);
mpz_init(randint);
gmp_randinit_mt(state);
cout << "Please choose a number for the seed for the random number
generator :";
cin >> seed;
gmp_randseed_ui(state, seed);
mpz_urandomb(randint, state, 512);
mpz_init(limit);
mpz_init(winner);
mpz_ui_pow_ui(limit, 2, 511);
mpz_ior(winner, limit, randint);
mpz_next_prime_candidate(q, winner, state);
gmp_randclear(state);
mpz_clear(randint);
mpz_clear(limit);
mpz_clear(winner);
// Now we find n=p*q
mpz_t N;
mpz_init(N);
mpz_mul(N, p, q);
mpz_t phin;
mpz_init(phin);
mpz_t pa;
mpz_init(pa);
mpz_t qa;
mpz_init(qa);
1st way
mpz_t one;
mpz_init(one);
mpz_set_ui(one, 1);
mpz_sub(pa, p, one);
mpz_sub(qa, q, one);
mpz_mul(phin, pa, qa);
Second way
mpz_sub_ui(pa, p, 1);
mpz_sub_ui(qa, q, 1);
mpz_mul(phin, pa, qa);
Then I write them to a document and clear everything.
