GF2: A C++ library for algebra over GF(2)
What is GF2?
GF2 is a C++ library which maintains the following algebraic structures
over GF(2):
WW— binary words of arbitrary finite length;ZZ— binary words as unsigned integers;MP— multivariate polynomials over GF(2);MI— ideals in multivariate polynomials rings over GF(2);Func— various functions on binary words (including Boolean and vectorial Boolean).
GF2 extensively uses C++ templates.
Build
