Hi William,
I just downloaded the sage version of the Stein-Watkins database of (a
subset of) the elliptic curves of conductor < 10^8, because I need a
supply of small curves with large rational torsion subgroups. I looked in
sage/local/share/stein_watkins/format.txt
and it says that the torsion subgroup is given as follows:
torsion_subgroup - n or nx, where n means Z/nZ and nx means Z/2Z x
Z/2nZ.
But in the actual tables, nx seems to indicate Z/2Z x Z/nZ (instead of
2nZ), because the values that appear are 2x, 4x, 6x, and 8x.
I hope all is well with you! Thanks ---
