From 4cb0ba36780b966eb3957a53571bcd42c5f81068 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Sat, 6 Jun 2026 18:59:58 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Support larger prime power bases in create_galois_field (issue #61) The Galois field power-cycle table (src/xtn.h) previously only covered prime power bases up to 47, so create_galois_field(53^2) and larger prime powers failed with 'GF(...) is not included in this program'. Extend the table to cover prime bases up to 127, adding primitive-polynomial entries for each base and exponent while p^n < 1e9 (the same threshold used for the original entries). Existing entries are left byte-for-byte unchanged. The generated polynomials are primitive (hence irreducible); only irreducibility is required by GaloisField.cpp, which builds the field tables without relying on x being a generator. Also restore the generator script (etc/CreatePowerCycle.R, referenced in the xtn.h header but missing from the repository) so the table can be regenerated and extended further, and add tests that build GF(53^2), GF(59^2), and GF(61^2) and spot-check the field axioms.
