I've release FLINT 1.2.5. This fixes a serious error that existed in zn_poly-0.8. Unbeknownst to me, David Harvey had already fixed this issue in zn_poly-0.9 but I had not realised that had been released, due to him changing institutions and me not updating my link to his webpage in my frequently visited tabs list. FLINT now uses zn_poly-0.9 by default for polynomial arithmetic over Z/nZ in zmod_poly. There is still an issue with z_factor which fails to factor some numbers very rarely (it prints a message to say it has failed). Tom Boothby is working on a fix, and this should also speed up the factorisation function noticeably. Bill. |
