Fast Exponentiation
Recursive Approach
function fastExponentiation(base, exponent, modulus) {
if (exponent === 0) return 1;
const halfExp = fastExponentiation(base, Math.floor(exponent / 2), modulus);
let result = (halfExp * halfExp) % modulus;
if (exponent % 2 === 1) {
result = (result * base) % modulus;
