But the log() function works on a finite field too. So its not correct if a i use the log on finite fields?
I wan to calculate log(\theta+i,\theta) for i in a finte field and theta a primtive element 2014-05-04 6:07 GMT-05:00 John Cremona <john.crem...@gmail.com>: > log() is a function you would apply to numbers, say real or complex: > > sage: a = RealField(100)(2) > sage: a.log() > 0.69314718055994530941723212146 > > while discrete_log() is something to do in a finite cyclic group.
