Introduction
Feel I am circling the drain trying to get to GF(256) so here goes.
This video demonstrated the mod 2 addition = the same a XOR or ⊕
⊕ | mod 2 addition --------------------------- 0 ⊕ 0 = 0 | 0+0/2 = 0 R 0 ---------------------------- 0 ⊕ 1 = 1 | 0+1/2 = 0 R 1 --------------------------- 1 ⊕ 0 = 1 | 1+0/2 = 0 R 1 --------------------------- 1 ⊕ 1 = 0 | 1+1/2 = 1 R 0
