Required methods

fn add(a: Self::Elem, b: Self::Elem) -> Self::Elem

Add two elements together.

fn mul(a: Self::Elem, b: Self::Elem) -> Self::Elem

Multiply two elements together.

fn div(a: Self::Elem, b: Self::Elem) -> Self::Elem

Divide a by b. Panics is b is zero.

fn exp(a: Self::Elem, n: usize) -> Self::Elem

Raise a to the n’th power.

fn zero() -> Self::Elem

The “zero” element or additive identity.

fn one() -> Self::Elem

The “one” element or multiplicative identity.

fn nth_internal(n: usize) -> Self::Elem

Provided methods

fn nth(n: usize) -> Self::Elem

Yield the nth element of the field. Panics if n >= ORDER. Assignment is arbitrary but must be unique to n.

fn mul_slice(elem: Self::Elem, input: &[Self::Elem], out: &mut [Self::Elem])

Multiply a slice of elements by another. Writes into the output slice.

Panics

Panics if the output slice does not have equal length to the input.

fn mul_slice_add(elem: Self::Elem, input: &[Self::Elem], out: &mut [Self::Elem])

Multiply a slice of elements by another, adding each result to the corresponding value in out.

Panics

Panics if the output slice does not have equal length to the input.
