23:03 Design #1168: ideal: does const ourGetPtr really need to be private?
It is very convenient having it public :-) :-)

09:52 Feature #1169 (Resolved): New function: RandomLinearForm (CoCoALib)
Done.
*RandomLinearForm(P)* -- if coeff ring of P is F_p
*RandomLinearForm(P, n)* -- same as _RandomLinearForm(P, -...

09:16 Slug #1165: MinPoly over QQ: verification may be very slow
Working well, but now this should also be accessible by @IsRadical, IsMaximal,...@
Think well before doing this!!

09:15 Design #1168: ideal: does const ourGetPtr really need to be private?
After discussing with John, I made it public.
Indeed the rest of the code is clenear, i.e. we do not need so many fr...

08:57 Slug #1165: MinPoly over QQ: verification may be very slow
After many many experiments, code is settled as this:
- *MinPolyQuot(f, I, x)* makes the complete verification (over...

14:12 Design #1168 (In Progress): ideal: does const ourGetPtr really need to be private?
If many functions have to be @friend@ that is not a good sign.
I'm too busy to think about it now, so suggest making...

18:48 Feature #1167 (In Progress): New class VerificationLevel
JAA has checked in a first impl (using KISS philosophy).
Anna will test it shortly.
The idea is that fns which ...

18:43 Feature #1167 (Closed): New class VerificationLevel

16:45 Feature #1131 (Resolved): Sturm sequence
The implementation seems to be mostly complete (for coeffs in QQ).
The elements of the sequence are scaled so that t...

11:51 Design #1166 (In Progress): C++11: allows large integer literals (in NumTheory-prime.C)
I'd like the code to compile whenever a 64-bit (or wider) integer type is available. This is guaranteed if the C++ s... John Abbott
11:47 Design #1166 (Closed): C++11: allows large integer literals (in NumTheory-prime.C)
I would like to include some "large" (greater than 2^32) integer literals in @NumTheory-prime.C@.
This cannot be d...

08:57 Slug #1165: MinPoly over QQ: verification may be very slow
Tried with TwinFloat: good for the 87 points (10 times faster) bad for example QQ-rand (10 times slower)
Anna Maria Bigatti
08:24 Slug #1165: MinPoly over QQ: verification may be very slow
An impressive example is given by 87 points in QQ^3.
@MinPoly@ takes ~4s and the verification take 44s on my Mac.

18:18 Design #950: factor and SmoothFactor for integers --> FactorINT, FactorINT_TrialDiv, FactorINT_PollardRho
Maybe there could be a fn called *@IsPrime3@* which is guaranteed (reasonably) fast, and returns a @bool3@?

18:14 Design #1145 (In Progress): File names, coding conventions: Fns, Ops, Operations? part 2
JAA has a preference for *@Ops@* rather than *@Operations@*. I think they are equally clear, and see no advantage in... John Abbott

18:05 Design #1162: Check semantics of NoSmallFactorSeq
