Well the way I first tried is as follows: age: F.<x>=GF(2)[] sage: G.<a>=F.quotient(x^6 + x^4 + x^2 + x + 1) sage: a.multiplicative_order() --------------------------------------------------------------------------- NotImplementedError Traceback (most recent call last)
But it gives a not implemented error. Luckily the following does work: sage: G.<a>=GF(2^6,modulus=x^6 + x^4 + x^2 + x + 1) sage: a.multiplicative_order() 21 -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
