Not without efforts I got this masters. As one can infere, starting to pursue such degree with 42 has required me to build a self-motivation foundation to begin with. An even harder task amid the global COVID-19 pandemic, and the very own life at fourty two. At some point during my lattice-based cryptography learning process, weird associated subjects started to pop up, and that has put me in a confusion state. I remember reading the expression "ring learning with errors", and thinking, as of where that had came from. It took me some time to figure out semantics, only to realize the bigger challenge before me. Luckily, the studied subject was fascinating enough, and also, I was surrounded by relevant people and organizations with valuable things to share, be it of emotional, technical or financial nature.For emotional support, thank you, beloved daughter Beatriz and beloved son Paulo. You have helped me in many ways. I've always had my motivation reaffirmed when we were together. I am also grateful for having been raised by my parents, who provided me with strength to face troublesome situations like this challenging adventure. Also, attending therapy sessions has proven to be effective in making self-motivation flourish. Thus, thank you, Mateus Pinheiro, for optimizing my insanity.Additionally, people endowed with outstanding knowledge has supported me in this work. Thank you, Prof.
