gr_ctx_init_mpn_mod, _gr_ctx_init_mpn_mod
#include <flint/mpn_mod.h>Initialises ctx to the ring with elements stored as arrays of as many limbs as . Returns GR_DOMAIN if and GR_UNABLE if does not have between MPN_MOD_MIN_LIMBS and MPN_MOD_MAX_LIMBS limbs; in both cases ctx is not initialised and must not be cleared. The underscore version takes as nlimbs limbs, of which the top one must be nonzero.
The context allocates its _mpn_mod_ctx_struct on the heap and must be cleared with gr_ctx_clear. Initialisation costs one precomputed inverse of (flint_mpn_preinvn). The primality flag starts as T_UNKNOWN.
A caller that handles all sizes typically uses gr_ctx_init_nmod for one limb, this function for 2 to 16 limbs and gr_ctx_init_fmpz_mod beyond.
