Every blog starts as a note. I publish what I learn so I can always come back and understand it again. And these posts are written from my personal notes. AI is used only for grammar, formatting, and readability.

### [Why do most modern zero knowledge proof systems convert the computations to polynomial equations ?](https://zk-dev-notes.hashnode.dev/why-do-most-modern-zero-knowledge-proof-systems-convert-the-computations-to-polynomial-equations?utm_source=hashnode&utm_medium=feed)

Let's get started : Assume we have a problem with five computations, now to verify these computations, the verifier will have to execute all those 5 computations and compare the computed value with th
