fq_zech_poly_factor_split_single

Synopsis#include <flint/fq_zech_poly_factor.h>
void fq_zech_poly_factor_split_single(fq_zech_poly_t linfactor, const fq_zech_poly_t input, const fq_zech_ctx_t ctx)

Sets linfactor to one monic linear factor x - a of input, which must split into linear factors (not necessarily distinct). If input has degree 1 it is copied. Throws FLINT_ERROR if no root is found. This is the step used by fq_zech_embed_gens to find a root of a defining polynomial in an extension field.

Generated from the same template as fq_poly_factor_split_single, whose documentation has the details.
