b-gcd-prs

▸ function bGcdPrs (a: bigint[], b: bigint[]): bigint[]

Defined in gcd/bigint/b-gcd-prs.ts:25

Heads up!

Use the modular gcd algorithm, [[gcdModular]] (still to be implemented 😢), instead - it is faster.

Returns the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) of the two given polynomials using Pseudo Remainder Sequences (PRSs) (bar overflow). The returned GCD is a polynomial with coefficients given densely as an array of bigints from highest to lowest power, e.g. [[5],[-3],[0]] represents the polynomial 5x^2 - 3x.

Parameters:

NameTypeDescription
abigint[]a polynomial with coefficients given densely as an array of bigints from highest to lowest power, e.g. [5n,-3n,0n] represents the polynomial 5x^2 - 3x
bbigint[]another polynomial

Returns: bigint[]
