Dailydave: Re: Probably the wrong forum... Python Polynomial Manipulation ?

[Will Beers <whbeers () ncsu edu>]

This might work?

http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/

"Arithmetic, factorization, root finding, etc.
STATUS:
 * arithmetic over GF(p) implemented using NTL.
 * factorization over GF(p) using PARI.
 *NEED* -- *fast* arith over GF(p^e) and factorization of GF(p^e) using 
either NTL (directly) or PARI (via norm down to GF(p)). It's unclear 
whether PARI or NTL will be better for factorization."

What might work even better is to use the NTL wrapper from it:

Good luck,
