This is a fork of the Sage mathematical software containing experimental code developed for the research project "Fast arithmetic for the algebraic closure of finite fields".
All the added code is contained in the directory
src/sage/rings/ff_compositum, its contents are released in the
public domain. For the copying conditions of Sage, see COPYING.md.
This code is a proof of concent. It is very user unfriendly and buggy. If you are interested in using it for your research project, please drop me a line, and I will try and help you.
If nevertheless you want to try it:
- Clone this branch.
- Compile Sage
as usual
(this usually means just
make). - Launch sage and
from sage.rings.ff_compositum.all import FFDesc, FFElt.
See the examples in http://github.com/defeo/ff_compositum/, have fun.
