31 /* Find multiplicative inverse using Euclid's extended algorithm.
32 Computes inverse such that a * inv mod n = 1, where 0 < a < n.
33 Algorithm goes like this:
39 g(i+1) = g(i-1) - y * g(i) = g(i)-1 mod g(i)
40 v(i+1) = v(i-1) - y * v(i)
42 do until g(i) = 0, then inverse = v(i-1). If inverse is negative then n,
43 is added to inverse making it positive again. (Sometimes the algorithm
44 has a variable u defined too and it behaves just like v, except that
45 initalize values are swapped (i.e. u(0) = 1, u(1) = 0). However, u is
46 not needed by the algorithm so it does not have to be included.)
