Basic Examples  (1)

Factor a polynomial over :

Factor an integer over :

Scope  (3)

By default polynomial factorization is performed over the rationals:

This specifies that the factorization should be done over :

By default integer factorization is performed over the integers:

This specifies that the factorization should be done over the Gaussian integers:

A number prime over the integers may not be prime over the Gaussian integers:
