Out[1]: 112

Generate random polynomials over \(\mathrm{GF}(7)\).

In [2]: GF = galois.GF(7)

In [3]: f1 = galois.Poly.Random(2, field=GF); f1
Out[3]: Poly(4x^2 + x, GF(7))

In [4]: f2 = galois.Poly.Random(3, field=GF); f2
Out[4]: Poly(3x^3 + 6x^2 + 3x + 3, GF(7))

In [5]: f3 = galois.Poly.Random(4, field=GF); f3
Out[5]: Poly(3x^4 + 4x^3 + 5x^2 + 3x + 2, GF(7))

Compute the product of three polynomials.

In [6]: galois.prod(f1, f2, f3)
Out[6]: Poly(x^9 + 3x^8 + 5x^7 + x^6 + 5x^5 + 6x^4 + 5x^3 + 4x^2 + 6x, GF(7))

In [7]: f1 * f2 * f3
Out[7]: Poly(x^9 + 3x^8 + 5x^7 + x^6 + 5x^5 + 6x^4 + 5x^3 + 4x^2 + 6x, GF(7))
