1. It wasn't really difficult this time but I do have one question: Why would it be useful to approximate (or know) how many points are on an elliptic curve? I assume these methods are only valuable for finite fields...not for the reals or complex numbers etc.
2. I liked how previous methods apply to elliptic curves for trying to crack them. I thought it was interesting the index calculus approach doesn't work though.
