A Tour of NTL: Examples: Extension Rings and Fields
</p>
</h1>

<p> <hr> <p>

NTL also supports extension rings and fields over finite fields,
and polynomial arithmetic over such extensions.
Here is a little program that illustrates this.

<p>
<pre>
#include &lt;NTL/ZZ_pXFactoring.h&gt;
#include &lt;NTL/ZZ_pEX.h&gt;

NTL_CLIENT

int main()
{
   ZZ_p::init(to_ZZ(17)); // define GF(17)

   ZZ_pX P;
   BuildIrred(P, 10); // generate an irreducible polynomial P
                      // of degree 10 over GF(17)

   ZZ_pE::init(P); // define GF(17^10)

   ZZ_pEX f, g, h;  // declare polynomials over GF(17^10)

   random(f, 20);  // f is a random, monic polynomial of degree 20
   SetCoeff(f, 20);

   random(h, 20); // h is a random polynomial of degree less than 20

   g = MinPolyMod(h, f); // compute the minimum polynomial of h modulo f

   if (g == 0) Error("oops (1)"); // check that g != 0

   if (CompMod(g, h, f) != 0) // check that g(h) = 0 mod f
      Error("oops (2)");
}
</pre>

This example illustrates building extension rings over <tt>ZZ_p</tt>.
One can also use <tt>zz_p</tt> and <tt>GF2</tt> as base classes;
the syntax is exactly the same.
