Click For Summary
The equation to solve is 5260862 = M*H^y % 20876441, with given values M = 20192834 and y = 17. The main focus is on correcting the order of operations in the calculations. Participants are seeking guidance on how to implement the solution in Python, specifically looking for a function that can handle modular arithmetic effectively. There is an emphasis on using the mod_inverse function, and clarifications on the allowed Python modules are requested to facilitate the coding process.

Solve this Equation for H: 5260862 = M*H^y % 20876441

Where y = 17, and M = 20192834? My H value is wrong from my previous tries.

I think my order of operations is wrong. Function for code would be helpful. Already familiar with mod_inverse. (Python 3)
