We are pleased to announce the release of FLINT 1.5, available at http://www.flintlib.org/
This release contains a number of new functions and a number of very critical bug fixes. IMPORTANT NOTE: the interface to the fmpz_multi_mod_ui, fmpz_multi_CRT_ui and fmpz_multi_CRT_unsigned_ui functions has changed. Also all the fmpz_poly_mul_modular* functions have been removed. They will not be replaced, but see the thetaproduct code for an example of multiplication of polynomials via disk using a modular algorithm. Build failure/success reports and make check reports are welcome. We are especially interested in reports from Mac owners. See the documentation online for how to build FLINT. v 1.5.0 -- 23-Sep-09 New Functions =========== * Added multimodular reduction and CRT to F_mpz module * Added zmod_poly_compose * Added zmod_poly_evaluate * Added functions for reduced evaluation and composition to fmpz_poly module (contributed by Burcin Erocal) * Added new thetaproduct code used in the 1 trillion triangles computation (requires openmp) * Added fmpz_comb_temp_init/clear functions * Added F_mpz_pow_ui function (contributed by Andy Novocin) Bug Fixes ======== * Fixed a severe bug in the fmpz_poly_pseudo_div function (reported by Sebastian Pancratz) * Fixed a severe bug in the FFT reported by William Stein and Mariah Lennox (fix contributed by David Harvey) * Fixed critical bugs in the primality tests in long_extras * Fixed some bugs in F_mpz module and numerous bugs in F_mpz test code * Removed some memory leaks from F_mpz test code * Fixed a rare normalisation buglet in fmpz_poly_pack_bytes Changes ======= * Removed all polynomial multimodular multiplication functions Contributors ========= The following people contributed code to this release: Burcin Erocal, William Hart, David Harvey, Andy Novocin The following people contibuted bug reports: Mariah Lennox, Sebastian Pancratz, William Stein We would also like to thank Sebastian Pancratz and Martin Albrecht and possibly others for their work on the QQ[x] implementation using FLINT in Sage.
