r""" Cryptosystems
This module contains base classes for various cryptosystems, including symmetric key and public-key cryptosystems. The classes defined in this module should not be called directly. It is the responsibility of child classes to implement specific cryptosystems. Take for example the Hill or matrix cryptosystem as implemented in :class:`HillCryptosystem <sage.crypto.classical.HillCryptosystem>`. It is a symmetric key cipher so :class:`HillCryptosystem <sage.crypto.classical.HillCryptosystem>` is a child class of :class:`SymmetricKeyCryptosystem <sage.crypto.cryptosystem.SymmetricKeyCryptosystem>`, which in turn is a child class of :class:`Cryptosystem <sage.crypto.cryptosystem.Cryptosystem>`. The following diagram shows the inheritance relationship of particular cryptosystems::

r""" A base cryptosystem class. This is meant to be extended by other specialized child classes that implement specific cryptosystems. A cryptosystem is a pair of maps
.. MATH::
E : {\mathcal K} \rightarrow {\rm Hom}({\mathcal M},{\mathcal C})
.. MATH::
D : {\mathcal K} \rightarrow {\rm Hom}({\mathcal C},{\mathcal M})
where `{\mathcal K}` is the key space, `{\mathcal M}` is the plaintext or message space, and `{\mathcal C}` is the ciphertext space. In many instances `{\mathcal M} = {\mathcal C}` and the images will lie in `{\rm Aut}({\mathcal M})`. An element of the image of `E` is called a cipher.
We may assume that `E` and `D` are injective, hence identify a key `K` in `{\mathcal K}` with its image `E_K := E(K)` in `\mathrm{Hom}({\mathcal M},{\mathcal C})`.
The cryptosystem has the property that for every encryption key `K_1` there is a decryption key `K_2` such that `D_{K_2} \circ E_{K_1}`. A cryptosystem with the property that `K := K_2 = K_1`, is called a symmetric cryptosystem. Otherwise, if the key `K_2 \ne K_1`, nor is `K_2` easily derived from `K_1`, we call the cryptosystem asymmetric or public key. In that case, `K_1` is called the public key and `K_2` is called the private key.
