fq_nmod_vec.h – vectors over finite fields (word-size characteristic)

Description.

Memory management

fq_nmod_struct * _fq_nmod_vec_init(slong len, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Returns an initialised vector of fq_nmod’s of given length.

void _fq_nmod_vec_clear(fq_nmod * vec, slong len, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Clears the entries of (vec, len) and frees the space allocated for vec.

Randomisation

void _fq_nmod_vec_randtest(fq_nmod_struct * f, flint_rand_t state, slong len, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Sets the entries of a vector of the given length to elements of the finite field.

Input and output

int _fq_nmod_vec_fprint(FILE * file, const fq_nmod_struct * vec, slong len, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Prints the vector of given length to the stream file. The format is the length followed by two spaces, then a space separated list of coefficients. If the length is zero, only \(0\) is printed.

In case of success, returns a positive value. In case of failure, returns a non-positive value.

int _fq_nmod_vec_print(const fq_nmod_struct * vec, slong len, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Prints the vector of given length to stdout.

For further details, see _fq_nmod_vec_fprint().

Assignment and basic manipulation

void _fq_nmod_vec_set(fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Makes a copy of (vec2, len2) into vec1.

void _fq_nmod_vec_swap(fq_nmod_struct * vec1, fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Swaps the elements in (vec1, len2) and (vec2, len2).

void _fq_nmod_vec_zero(fq_nmod_struct * vec, slong len, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Zeros the entries of (vec, len).

void _fq_nmod_vec_neg(fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Negates (vec2, len2) and places it into vec1.

Comparison

int _fq_nmod_vec_equal(const fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Compares two vectors of the given length and returns \(1\) if they are equal, otherwise returns \(0\).

int _fq_nmod_vec_is_zero(const fq_nmod_struct * vec, slong len, const ctx_ctx)

Returns \(1\) if (vec, len) is zero, and \(0\) otherwise.

Addition and subtraction

void _fq_nmod_vec_add(fq_nmod_struct * res, const fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Sets (res, len2) to the sum of (vec1, len2) and (vec2, len2).

void _fq_nmod_vec_sub(fq_nmod_struct * res, const fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Sets (res, len2) to (vec1, len2) minus (vec2, len2).

Scalar multiplication and division

void _fq_nmod_vec_scalar_addmul_fq_nmod(fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_t c, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Adds (vec2, len2) times \(c\) to (vec1, len2), where \(c\) is a fq_nmod_t.

void _fq_nmod_vec_scalar_submul_fq_nmod(fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_t c, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Subtracts (vec2, len2) times \(c\) from (vec1, len2), where \(c\) is a fq_nmod_t.

Dot products

void _fq_nmod_vec_dot(fq_nmod_t res, const fq_nmod_struct * vec1, const fq_nmod_struct * vec2, slong len2, const fq_nmod_ctx_t ctx)

Sets res to the dot product of (vec1, len) and (vec2, len).
