(b) Suppose f(x) is a function with n-bit outputs and with inputs much larger than n bits (this implies that collisions must exist). We know that, with a birthday attack, we have probability 1/2 of finding a collision in approximately 2/2 steps. Suppose we repeat the birthday attack until we find a collision. Calculate the expected number of repetitions.
