- Does anyone know of software (C or C++ routines would be fine) for
- doing calculations in finite fields. Particularly needed are routines
- for polynomials (manipulation, finding irreducibles, finding primitve
- roots, etc.) over fintite fields, including "polynomials of polinomials"
- i. e., polynomials over an extention field which is itself a field of
- polynomials modulo an irreducible polynomial over the prime field.
-
- Public domain software preferred, but not required.
