nmod_discrete_log_pohlig_hellman_run
Synopsis
#include <flint/nmod.h>ulong nmod_discrete_log_pohlig_hellman_run(const nmod_discrete_log_pohlig_hellman_t L, ulong y)sourceReturns the x \in [0, p - 1) with g^x \equiv y \pmod p. Requires 0 < y < p.
L is not modified, so several threads can call nmod_discrete_log_pohlig_hellman_run with the same L at the same time. For y = 0, which has no logarithm, the function throws an exception when p is odd.
