 Priority:  major    |   Milestone:     
Component:  algebra  |    Keywords:

 Example:

 {{{
 sage: G=DirichletGroup(5); X=G.list(); Y=X[0]; Z=X[1]
 sage: # Y is trivial and Z is quartic
 sage: sum([Y(x)*Z(1-x) for x in IntegerModRing(5)])
  -1
 sage: # The value -1 above is the correct value of the Jacobi sum J(Y, Z).
 sage: Y.jacobi_sum(Z);    Z.jacobi_sum(Y)
 0
 0
 sage: #The 0 values above are incorrect values of J(Y, Z).
 }}}
