Modifies the print options for the package. This function is the galois equivalent of numpy.set_printoptions().

Parameters¶

coeffs: 'desc' | 'asc' = 'desc'¶

The order in which to print the coefficients, either in descending degrees (default) or ascending degrees.

Examples¶

By default, polynomials are displayed with descending degrees.

In [1]: GF = galois.GF(3**5, display="poly")

In [2]: a = GF([109, 83]); a
Out[2]: GF([α^4 + α^3 + 1,       α^4 + 2], order=3^5)

In [3]: f = galois.Poly([3, 0, 5, 2], field=galois.GF(7)); f
Out[3]: Poly(3x^3 + 5x + 2, GF(7))

Modify the print options to display polynomials with ascending degrees.

In [4]: galois.set_printoptions(coeffs="asc")

In [5]: a
Out[5]: GF([1 + α^3 + α^4,       2 + α^4], order=3^5)

In [6]: f
Out[6]: Poly(2 + 5x + 3x^3, GF(7))
