<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
<p>EC_POINT_add adds the two points <b>a</b> and <b>b</b> and places the result in <b>r</b>. Similarly EC_POINT_dbl doubles the point <b>a</b> and places the result in <b>r</b>. In both cases it is valid for <b>r</b> to be one of <b>a</b> or <b>b</b>.</p>
<p>EC_POINT_invert calculates the inverse of the supplied point <b>a</b>. The result is placed back in <b>a</b>.</p>
<p>The function EC_POINT_is_at_infinity tests whether the supplied point is at infinity or not.</p>
<p>EC_POINT_is_on_curve tests whether the supplied point is on the curve or not.</p>
<p>EC_POINT_cmp compares the two supplied points and tests whether or not they are equal.</p>
<p>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</b> provides the number of points in the array <b>points</b> to be forced.</p>
<p>EC_POINT_mul is a convenient interface to EC_POINTs_mul: it calculates the value generator * <b>n</b> + <b>q</b> * <b>m</b> and stores the result in <b>r</b>. The value <b>n</b> may be NULL in which case the result is just <b>q</b> * <b>m</b> (variable point multiplication). Alternatively, both <b>q</b> and <b>m</b> may be NULL, and <b>n</b> non-NULL, in which case the result is just generator * <b>n</b> (fixed point multiplication). When performing a single fixed or variable point multiplication, the underlying implementation uses a constant time algorithm, when the input scalar (either <b>n</b> or <b>m</b>) is in the range [0, ec_group_order).</p>
<p>EC_POINTs_mul calculates the value generator * <b>n</b> + <b>q[0]</b> * <b>m[0]</b> + ... + <b>q[num-1]</b> * <b>m[num-1]</b>. As for EC_POINT_mul the value <b>n</b> may be NULL or <b>num</b> may be zero. When performing a fixed point multiplication (<b>n</b> is non-NULL and <b>num</b> is 0) or a variable point multiplication (<b>n</b> is NULL and <b>num</b> is 1), the underlying implementation uses a constant time algorithm, when the input scalar (either <b>n</b> or <b>m[0]</b>) is in the range [0, ec_group_order).</p>
<p>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 <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_copy.html">EC_GROUP_copy(3)</a> for information about the generator.</p>
<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>
<p>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.</p>
<p>EC_POINT_is_at_infinity returns 1 if the point is at infinity, or 0 otherwise.</p>
<p>EC_POINT_is_on_curve returns 1 if the point is on the curve, 0 if not, or -1 on error.</p>
<p>EC_POINT_cmp returns 1 if the points are not equal, 0 if they are, or -1 on error.</p>
<p>EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult return 1 if a precomputation has been done, or 0 if not.</p>
