This Python 3 code implements Galois field (finite field) arithmetic in pure Python,
|
|
leveraging Python's support for very long integers.
|
|
|
|
Because it's in pure Python, it's relatively slow --- don't use it for performance-critical
|
|
applications.
|
|
Instead, use it to _verify_ other implementations, or to understand how Galois field calculations work.
