Using the results of function GF? - leo3065 - 10-27-2018 04:14 PM

Currently I'm writing a program which need some operation in Galois field, but I can't find a way to further to use the result of the calculation. So I have some calculations like this:

Code:

g:=GF(2,8,[x,g,a])

--->

GF(2,x^8-x^5-x^3-x-1,[x,g,a],undef)

g(x)

--->

a

g(x^10)

--->

a^7+a^5+a^3+a^2

g(x^10)+g(x^2)

--->

a^7+a^5+a^3

So far so good, but how can I turn things like the result of g(x^10)+g(x^2) into regular polynomials like x^7+x^5+x^3? Doing subst(g(x^10)+g(x^2),a,x) didn't work...
