If I perform a scalar multiplication e.g. of an integer with a module
element, it seems that a double-and-add algorithm is used. Where (in
which file/class) is that algorithm exactly implemented?
It is called, for example by
sage: E = EllipticCurve('37a')
sage: P = E(0,0)
sage: 5*P
(1/4 : -5/8 : 1)
I searched in element.pyx, coerce.pyx, coerce_action.pyx, action.pyx,
but couldn't find it. Maybe I overlooked it or maybe it is defined in
Python somewhere.
