Comment:
Replying to [comment:72 jdemeyer]:
> If I understand things correctly, the `modpn` in the filename refers to
a finite field of size `p^n`, right? That's a very confusing name, can you
use `matrix_gfpn_dense.pyx` or something?
Do you suggest to rename Martin Albrecht's `matrix_mod2e_dense.pyx` to
`matrix_gf2e_dense.pyx`? By the way, IIRC that's where I got the heading
from.
I think we should be consistent with the existing naming scheme. We
currently have `matrix_modn_dense`, `matrix_mod2_dense`,
`matrix_mod2e_dense`, and the obvious continuation of that scheme is
`matrix_modpn_dense`.
