org.bouncycastle.pqc.math.linearalgebra.PolynomialRingGF2

public final class PolynomialRingGF2
extends java.lang.Object

This class describes operations with polynomials over finite field GF(2), i e polynomial ring R = GF(2)[X]. All operations are defined only for polynomials with degree <=32. For the polynomial representation the map f: R->Z, poly(X)->poly(2) is used, where integers have the binary representation. For example: X^7+X^3+X+1 -> (00...0010001011)=139 Also for polynomials type Integer is used.
