FieldExp
FieldExp[
f
,
n
]
gives the value of the discrete exponential of
n
associated with the field
f
.
MORE INFORMATION
To use
FieldExp
, you first need to load the
Finite Fields Package
using
Needs
["FiniteFields`"]
.
With
p
a primitive element of the field
f
, the value of the discrete exponential function of
n
is
p
n
. In particular,
FieldExp[
f
, 1]
gives the primitive element used.
FieldExp
is defined only if
PowerListQ
has been set
True
for the field.
FieldExp[
f
, -
]
gives 0.
