Do you have this contract for new solidity versions? It keeps me logging errors in compiler. Thanks

@adolfommoyano Have you checked @riordant 's fork?

Hi, why is it important mod exp contract? I just need to verify sepc256r1 signatures in solidity. However I still dont know how. Can you please help me? Thanks

@adolfommoyano Sorry, I haven't looked into Solidity for years, and am not really interested in doing so ever again. I suggest you join the Gitter channel https://gitter.im/ethereum/solidity/
