	FINITE FIELD ELEMENTS

	in this file the routines for the manipulation of finite
	filed elements are documented. 
	A FF (=FINITEFIELD) object is a VECTOR object whose
	first entry contains the characteristic, the second
	entry is not available for manipulation. So it not
	possible to use VECTOR routines for the manipulation of
	FF objects.
	To acces the characteristic of a FF object you have
	the functions

NAME:	
	s_ff_c
SYNOPSIS: 
	OP s_ff_c( OP ff)
DESCRIPTION: 
	gives the characteristic of a FF object
	as an INTEGER object
NAME:	
	s_ff_ci
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT s_ff_ci( OP ff)
DESCRIPTION: 
	gives the characteristic of a FF object
	as an INT value.

COMMENT:
	If you want to build a FF object by hand, you may look

	If you want to build a FF object by hand, you may look
	at the routine m_vector_ff below. The arithmetic
	for finite field elements needs the files

	trace_02.pol
	trace_03.pol
	trace_05.pol
	trace_07.pol
	trace_11.pol
	trace_13.pol
	....

	in the actual directory. This is no longer true, you may
	also work without these files, in this case they will
	be built automatically. But if you have this files, the
	arithmetic may be faster in cases, where we can use
	precomputed values out of these files.

	The arithmetic computes dynamically extensions of the 
	current field. To get the INT-value of the
	current extensiondegree of a FF object there is the routine

NAME:	
	s_ff_di
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT s_ff_di(OP ff)
DESCRIPTION: 
	gives the degree of the extension as an INT value

COMMENT:
	Routines for FF objects alphabetically sorted
	---------------------------------------------

NAME:	
	first_ff
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT first_ff(OP char, OP degree, OP res)
DESCRIPTION:
	computes the lex. first element of given degree of extension
	and given characteristic

NAME:	
	m_ff_vector
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT m_ff_vector(OP ff, OP vec)
DESCRIPTION: 
	you may interpret a element of a field extension
	as a element of vectorspace of the prime field, so
	you get a INTEGERVECTOR vec of length = degree of the
	extension. 
	This routine is the inverse routine to m_vector_ff

NAME:	
	m_vector_ff
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT m_vector_ff(OP char, OP vec, OP res)
DESCRIPTION: 
	builds a FF object res, whose characteristic is given
	by the INTEGER object a. The second parameter vec is a VECTOR
	object with INTEGER entries between 0 and char-1. These are
	the coefficients of the FF object res according to the
	internally used, not documented, basis.

NAME:	
	next
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT next(OP a,b)
DESCRIPTION: 
	computes the lexicographic next element in the
	finite filed. returns FALSE if we had already the last element.
	returns TRUE else.

NAME:	
	order_ff
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT order_ff( OP ff, OP res)
DESCRIPTION: 
	the input is a object of type FF, the output
	is a INTEGER object res, which contains the order 
	of the input object. (order = number of multiplications
	to get unity)

NAME:	
	random_ff
SYNOPSIS: 
	INT random_ff(OP res)
DESCRIPTION: 
	computes a random finite field element
