Modular Operations refer to computations performed within a finite field or ring, where results are always kept within a specific range by taking the remainder after division by a modulus. These operations are fundamental to many cryptographic algorithms, including those used in zero-knowledge proofs and digital signatures. They provide a mathematical framework for secure and efficient computation in constrained environments. Such operations are critical for cryptographic security.
