To be honest I don't think that there is much hard in RSA. I actually love that about it. It is pretty darn straight forward. The hard part was finding the algorithm and not really doing it. If anything it takes a little to find out why the two expenotiations work, but other than that it is good.
The most interesting fact to me is that it just works. I love the idea of public key encryption. Finding ways where we can each know part of the answer, but it isn't enough to let us solve the problem. The very fact that this is possible truly amazes me. I wonder what lies further in this field that would allow us to find other public key algorithms that are faster and thus even more usable than RSA.
