Similarly EC_POINT_dbl doubles the point B<a> and places the +result in B<r>. In both cases it is valid for B<r> to be one of B<a> or B<b>. + +EC_POINT_invert calculates the inverse of the supplied point B<a>. The result is placed back in B<a>. + +The function EC_POINT_is_at_infinity tests whether the supplied point is at infinity or not. + +EC_POINT_is_on_curve tests whether the supplied point is on the curve or not. + +EC_POINT_cmp compares the two supplied points and tests whether or not they are equal. + +The functions EC_POINT_make_affine and EC_POINTs_make_affine force the internal representation of the EC_POINT(s) into the affine +co-ordinate system. In the case of EC_POINTs_make_affine the value B<num> provides the number of points in the array B<points> to be +forced. + +EC_POINT_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q> * B<m> and stores the result in B<r>. The value B<n> may be NULL in which case the result is just B<q> * B<m>. + +EC_POINTs_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q[0]> * B<m[0]> + ... + B<q[num-1]> * B<m[num-1]>. As for EC_POINT_mul the value +B<n> may be NULL. + +The function EC_GROUP_precompute_mult stores multiples of the generator for faster point multiplication, whilst +EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult tests whether precomputation has already been done. See L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)|EC_GROUP_copy(3)> for information +about the generator. + + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +The following functions return 1 on success or 0 on error: EC_POINT_add, EC_POINT_dbl, EC_POINT_invert, EC_POINT_make_affine, +EC_POINTs_make_affine, EC_POINTs_make_affine, EC_POINT_mul, EC_POINTs_mul and EC_GROUP_precompute_mult. + +EC_POINT_is_at_infinity returns 1 if the point is at infinity, or 0 otherwise. + +EC_POINT_is_on_curve returns 1 if the point is on the curve, 0 if not, or -1 on error. + +EC_POINT_cmp returns 1 if the points are not equal, 0 if they are, or -1 on error. + +EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult return 1 if a precomputation has been done, or 0 if not. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<crypto(3)|crypto(3)>, L<ec(3)|ec(3)>, L<EC_GROUP_new(3)|EC_GROUP_new(3)>, L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)|EC_GROUP_copy(3)>, +L<EC_POINT_new(3)|EC_POINT_new(3)>, L<EC_KEY_new(3)|EC_KEY_new(3)>, +L<EC_GFp_simple_method(3)|EC_GFp_simple_method(3)>, L<d2i_ECPKParameters(3)|d2i_ECPKParameters(3)> + +=cut |
