Q4. Discrete Zero-Knowledge Proofs: Alice and Bob both have the knowledge of the public variables p=17 and A=5. From these, they can compute B, using A* = B mod p. In addition, Alice knows x=10 and wants to prove to Bob that it knows the value of x without actually revealing it to Bob. Show the computations and communication that happens at different steps of the algorithm discussed in the course notes which finally prove to Bob that Alice knows the value of x without Alice revealing it.
