There are 30 polynomials; some of them are both irreducible and primitive. All of you, should choose a polynomial (you can form groups of at most 2), and send me your polynomial with a screen shot or explanation that verifies that it is irrredudible (you can use SAGE or magma-- online manuals or someother method) |
