Hello Im following a 101 algebra course, and I would like to factor a polynomial on a finite field like F_9 for example.
R = PolynomialRing(GF(9),'x') x = R.gen() f = x^4+x^2-1 f in R f.factor()
i get an error message Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "_sage_input_68.py", line 10, in <module> exec compile(u'open("___code___.py","w").write("# -- coding: utf-8 --\n" + _support_.preparse_worksheet_cell(base64.b64decode("UiA9IFBvbHlub21pYWxSaW5nKEdGKDkpLCd4JykKeCA9IFIuZ2VuKCkKZiA9IHheNCt4XjItMQpmIGluIFI="),globals())+"\n"); execfile(os.path.abspath("___code___.py")) File "", line 1, in <module>

%% im running sage 6.3 notebook on windows through Oracle VM winbox Im a totally new user, and ive looked at the tutorial and the forum but couldnt find any example or reason why this would not work thank you for your help %%
