Yes, I have a better sense how HTTPS works actually by grinding some of the math behind it. So I can say if we care about the details of something and want to understand something deeper than the conceptual level, math is not always the answer, but it could help for sure.

In the past few days, I have had time to reflect on what kind of math I have to use in practice for writing technical implementation. Nothing too fancy, just some basic math & fundamentals, but it's the cumulative effort spanning over a couple of years of writing software and recent exposure to some new interesting concepts.

Thanks for reading and hope you find it useful!
