Description

Initialize the object and optionally also select a point on the curve.

The point on the curve can be selected via either via specifying the two coordinates explicitly, or via

Point	A Point on the same Curve to copy.
mapping(string(7bit):int|Gmp.mpz)	A mapping with integer coordinates "x" and "y".
mapping(string(7bit):string(7bit))	A mapping representing a JWK for the Point on the same Curve.
mapping(string(7bit):string(8bit))	A mapping with coordinates "x" and "y" in big-endian.
Stdio.Buffer|string(8bit)	The ANSI x9.62 representation of the Point. Cf encode().

Note

Throws errors if the point isn't on the Curve.
