RE: pa2b2 small oddity
Oh, thank you very much!

I also noticed that legendre_symbol(a,p) seems to return odd values sometimes, e.g., legendre_symbol(-23,83) returns 809331400 ??? But legendre_symbol(a,p) should only return values {-1,0,1}.

In this case, legendre_symbol(-23,83) should equal legendre_symbol(60,83), and that does get handled correctly, returning -1.

Thanks for looking into that!
