As I said in another comment, individual verifiability and non-coercion are mutually exclusive online. However, there are indeed solutions for the other properties (including global integrity), and compromises between individual verifiabili

That is indeed the main issue with verifiable voting. The usual solutions offer various compromises, but it is not possible to both guarantee the ability to verify that one's ballot is counted correctly, and that you cannot prove for w

Yes, it's possible, and it is an area of research in cryptography. For instance, have a look at Helios and Belenios.

"Automated proof" means that the verification is automated. Actually automating the process of finding proofs is still mostly an open problem. Formal proof software will help you on small stuff, but you will still do most of the w

Right, my bad. I tend to write loops in the former style, thinking of them as reversed(range(9)). This is another advantage of this style. I should have been more cautious when writing the second one.

The point is that a beginner does not need to care about signedness. When you get to that point, you can take the time to explain how to loop properly over it.

This is about weighing correction versus readability. In the "arrow operator" version, the readability is decreased; in the "proper" version, a type cast is required, and this can lead to bugs with values greater than 2^

Decrementing loops is the one place where I have indulged in some trickery. I do: for (size_t i = 9; i --> 0; ) This has the advantage to be very easy to pattern-match once known. Obviously, for a beginner, I would just do:

No, it is perfectly fine. But it is also useful to know there are previous conversations to be read.

Clickbait is making a link a bait so that you click on it. In other words, it pretty much means an appealing title.

You are talking about making a combined hash function from MD5 and SHA-1. Keep in mind that it is not trivial. For instance, if you just output both SHA-1 and MD5, you are actually only as strong as the weakest hash function (trivially for

Oh, my bad, I got confused with the brackets (which are not on a digit key). I really should have checked. See, we all make mistakes!

It might be useful to allow changing one's guess. It's pretty annoying when you misclick in the middle of the map and cannot pick the correct location.

This is a very good point. I have observed that people tend to forget the physical differences between being small and being tall. Not everything is proportional [1]. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square-cube_law
