Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme

    Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme (SSSS) is an implementation of a
    threshold scheme for sharing a secret between third parties, and
    requiring a threshold of those parties to collaborate to reveal the
    secret.

    Taken from the Wikipedia article about Secret Sharing:

    	In cryptography, a secret sharing scheme is a method for
    	distributing a secret amongst a group of participants, each of
    	which is allocated a share of the secret.  The secret can only
    	be reconstructed when the shares are combined together;
    	individual shares are of no use on their own.

    Shamir's scheme is provable secure:  in a (t,n) scheme one can prove
    that it makes no difference whether an attacker has t-1 valid shares
    at his disposal or none at all; as long as he has less than t shares,
    there is no better option than guessing to find out the secret.
