Constructor Detail

AlgebraicExtensionElement

public AlgebraicExtensionElement(AlgebraicExtension K,
                                 Number[] coeffs)

An element of the algebraic extension K(t). a0 + a1 t + a(n-1) t^(n-1) where t is defined to be the the solution of a polynomial equation. If the degree of the polynomial specified by coeffs is greater than n then the polynomial will be reduced by using the equation t^n = .....

Parameters:

K - the algebraic extension.

coeffs - array of coefficients for this algebraic number. c0 + c1 t + ... + cn t^n
