NAME
     BN_mod_inverse - compute inverse modulo n

SYNOPSIS
      #include <openssl/bn.h>

      BIGNUM *BN_mod_inverse(BIGNUM *r, BIGNUM *a, const BIGNUM *n,
		BN_CTX *ctx);

DESCRIPTION
     BN_mod_inverse() computes the inverse of a modulo n places
     the result in r ("(a*r)%n==1"). If r is NULL, a new BIGNUM
     is created.

     ctx is a previously allocated BN_CTX used for temporary
     variables. r may be the same BIGNUM as a or n.

RETURN VALUES
     BN_mod_inverse() returns the BIGNUM containing the inverse,
     and NULL on error. The error codes can be obtained by
     ERR_get_error(3).

SEE ALSO
     bn(3), ERR_get_error(3), BN_add(3)

HISTORY
     BN_mod_inverse() is available in all versions of SSLeay and
     OpenSSL.
