_nmod_poly_conway
Synopsis
#include <flint/nmod_poly.h>If FLINT's compressed copy of Lübeck's tables [Lüb2004] contains the Conway polynomial C_{p,d} for p = prime and d = deg, writes its d + 1 coefficients to op and returns 1; otherwise returns 0 (see Defining polynomials). The tables cover the primes below 109988, with all tabulated degrees for p < 260 and degree bounds that decrease with p above (12 for p < 300, then 9, 6, 4).
