Secret Sharing (Secret Sharing)

Description

Secret Sharing is the splitting up of a secret amongst a group such that no individual can learn the entire secret alone, but when a sufficient amount of the group comes together with their parts of the secret, they can reconstruct the secret.

Parameters

n: size of the group the secret is being shared with
