ok, sorry about the factor of 100. Ask me if you want to know how the code works (but it is not easy). I just spent a large number of hours tracking down an error revealed by valgrind (accessing unintialized memory) which turned out to be a question of replacing < by <= in one loop. John On 21

Bill, This question can be answered at (at least) two levels with very different levels of sophistication. For point searching on elliptic (and more general curves) there are lots of algorithms and implementatons. There's a stand-alone C program by M. Stoll and other called ratpoints, and my mw
