elliptic_curve

Module with helper class for elliptic curves.

class EllipticCurve(name: str, order: int, generator: IPoint, point_cls: Type[IPoint], pub_key_cls: Type[IPublicKey], priv_key_cls: Type[IPrivateKey])

Bases: object

Class for a generic elliptic curve. This is not meant to be complete but just the minimum required to abstract the bip module from the specific ECC library.
