"Up next on VH1's Where Are They Now?, Alice and Bob!"
Alice: At the time I thought Eve was the only one I had to worry about. Little
did I know, Carol would be the one who'd really replace me in the end.
Edit: Hmm, downvoted. I guess humor isn't welcome here?

A bit of transparency: Before the edit I received one downvote. After I received 5 upvotes, which is on the higher end of most of my comments. Either I reacted prematurely, or calling it out reversed the perception bias to the positive. I think it's some of both, as the joke really wasn't funny enough to warrant the score.
1. Carol will abort if she receives B == 0 (mod N) or u == 0.
2. Steve will abort if he receives A (mod N) == 0.
3. Carol must show her proof of K first. If Steve detects that Carol's proof is incorrect, he must abort without showing his own proof of K.
[1] Ok, the python code doesn't seem to, you're correct. However, that's less a demonstration of a protocol implementation, and more a demonstration of the protocol's math. The page does mention it though in the protocol section. It would be appropriate (and maybe later I'll do this) to break that out so it's more obvious.
