Continued Fractions Applied to the One Line Factoring Algorithm for Breaking RSA

The RSA (Rivest–Shamir–Adleman) cryptosystem is an asymmetric public key cryptosystem popular for its use in encryptions and digital signatures. However, the Wiener’s attack on the RSA cryptosystem utilizes continued fractions, which has generated much interest in developing competitive factoring al...
