Trait Scalar

pub trait Scalar: Mul<Output = Self> + Sized {
    // Required methods
    fn random() -> Self;
    fn from_bytes(bytes: &[u8]) -> Result<Self>;
    fn to_bytes(&self) -> Box<[u8]>;
}

Types representing a valid non-zero scalar an additive abelian group.

Required Methods

fn random() -> Self

Generates a random scalar using a cryptographically secure RNG.

fn from_bytes(bytes: &[u8]) -> Result<Self>

Create scalar from bytes

fn to_bytes(&self) -> Box<[u8]>

Convert scalar to bytes.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
