              ohoho, this is pernicious (following the wikipedia article on rsa, to the letter >:), mostly c):

              struct KeyPair generate_RSA_keypair() {
                  struct KeyPair keypair;
                  bigint p = generate_prime();
                  bigint q = generate_prime();
                  bigint n = p*q;
                  bigint totient = (p-1) * (q-1);
                  bigint e = 1;
                  while (gcd(e, totient) != 1) {
                      e++;
                  }
                  bigint d = modular_inverse(e, totient);
                  keypair.n = n;
                  keypair.e = e;
                  keypair.d = d;
                  return keypair;
              }

    I first got this error trying to play under the hood of a MacBook in high school and got scared it was reporting to the school. It of course didn’t.
