Quoting Ralf Hemmecke <r...@hemmecke.org>:

But if the coefficients are modulo n, how to specify this?

Does that help?

It looks, like if it is going into the right directions

FiniteField looks good, maybe FiniteRing also available?


What I'm looking for, is  polynoms with modulo-coefficients.


Say Z_2 = { 0, 1 }
And the coefficients a_i of a polynom   e.g.  a2 * t^2 + a1 * t + a0
can only have values of 0 an 1, which are the representations of aequivalence classes.

So, -1 = 1, -2 = 0,  2 = 0, 3 = 1,  4 = 0, and so on

Aequivalence classes in Z2 (LaTeX:   \mathbb{Z}_2)
...
-4 -3
-2 -1
 0  1
 2  3
 4  5
 6 7
....

And 0 and 1 are the usual representations of these classes.

And the coefficients can have only values from these classes.
So, it bahaves as if they can have only values 0 and 1.


In Z_3, it would be 0,1,2
in Z_4, it would be 0,1,2,3
...

any ideas about that?
