GaloisField -- the class of all Galois fields

GaloisField -- the class of all Galois fields

The type GaloisField is a member of the class Type. Each object of class GaloisField is called a Galois field. Each Galois field is also a member of class EngineRing.

More general types (whose methods may also apply) :

EngineRing -- the class of rings handled by the engine

Ring -- the class of all rings

Type -- the class of all types

MutableHashTable -- the class of all mutable hash tables

HashTable -- the class of all hash tables

Functions and methods returning a a Galois field :

GF Ring -- make a finite field from a ring

GF ZZ -- make a finite field of a given order

GF(ZZ,ZZ) -- make a finite field of a given prime power order
