Our goal is to find the multiple _kG_ of the generator point _G_, which is the same as adding _G_ to itself, _k_ times in a row. In elliptic curves, adding a point to itself is the equivalent of drawing a tangent line on the point and finding where it intersects the curve again, then reflecting that point on the x-axis. -<> shows the process for deriving _G_, _2G_, _4G_, as a geometric operation on the curve. +<> shows the process for deriving _G_, _2G_, _4G_, and _8G_ as a geometric operation on the curve.
