  Description     : Number factorization with the Elliptic Curve Method (ECM)

pyecm is a python program to factor numbers using the Elliptic Curve Method
(ECM).  It is relatively fast in that it can quickly factors numbers up
to 50 digits.
 
pyecm seems to be faster than gmp-ecm on many tests and is much more
portable (it's written in python).
