I just want to tell the user of my factoring apps when the quadratic
that they submit is prime. I've tried is_prime, and
len(factor(x^2+B*x+C)) (thinking an answer of one would mean its
prime, but it does not mean that). What is the best way in SAGE right
now to test a polynomial over ZZ to tell if it is irreducible over ZZ?
