I am looking for a python package that deals with galois fields.
Does anybody know where can I find it?
Googling for
python "finite field"
reveals among other things the URLs
http://www.hpcf.upr.edu/~humberto/software/fields/ http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~emin/source_code/py_ecc/
I have not looked into those, but at least the first one seems to be in a very early state, since its version number is 0.1.1. The second one contains code for handling Reed-Solomon codes, which among other things includes arithmetic for finite fields.
Good luck! /Mikael Olofsson Universitetslektor (Senior Lecturer [BrE], Associate Professor [AmE]) Linköpings universitet
