hello. I try to calculate the trace of an element, like this:
GAP4, Version: 4.4.12 of 17-Dec-2008, x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc gap> F2:=GF(2); GF(2) gap> x:=X(GF(2), "x"); x gap> F:=AlgebraicExtension(F2, x^2+x+1); <field of size 4> gap> r:=RootOfDefiningPolynomial(F); a gap> Trace(r); Error, no method found! For debugging hints type ?Recovery from NoMethodFound Error, no 1st choice method found for `AsDivisionRing' on 2 arguments called ...... I had tried Trace(F4, F2, r) and Trace(F4, r), they didn't work. Thanks. _______________________________________________ Forum mailing list Forum@mail.gap-system.org http://mail.gap-system.org/mailman/listinfo/forum
