fq_nmod_poly_roots
Synopsis
#include <flint/fq_nmod_poly_factor.h>void fq_nmod_poly_roots(fq_nmod_poly_factor_t r, const fq_nmod_poly_t f, int with_multiplicity, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)Sets r to the roots of the nonzero polynomial f in \mathbb{F}_q, stored as the monic linear factors x - a. If with_multiplicity is nonzero, the exponents are the multiplicities of the roots; otherwise they are 1. Previous contents of r are discarded. This is a wrapper of gr_poly_roots_finite_field, which splits \gcd(f, x^q - x) by equal-degree factorisation; see Roots of polynomials over finite fields.
Generated from the same template as fq_poly_roots, whose documentation has the details.
