Hi I found a subpackage in the help pages with functions and concepts in mathematics that i have had a very keen interest in for quite a number of years now, and so to find an area of specialization that also has a modern day application is of course a beautiful day for any mathematics enthusiast , and especially so in that the help page provides a very basic example of such an application.

My only problem is that i start laughing when i think of the name that has been given to the algorithm that produces the encryption key. 

Must i refer to the name "BlumBlumShub" in referencing it's creator in any essays or personal writings, or can i shorten this to BBS with the consent of Maple?
