Function Documentation

NTL::RR& Givaro::Caster	(	NTL::RR &	x,
		const Integer &	y
	)

Initialization of field element from an integer.

Behaves like C++ allocator construct. This function assumes the output field element x has already been constructed, but that it is not already initialized. For now, this is done by converting the integer type to a C++ long and then to the element type through the use of static cast and NTL's to_RR function. This, of course, assumes such static casts are possible. This function should be changed in the future to avoid using long.

Returns

reference to field element.

Parameters

x	field element to contain output (reference returned).
y	integer.

Integer& Givaro::Caster	(	Integer &	x,
		const NTL::RR &	y
	)

Conversion of field element to an integer.

This function assumes the output field element x has already been constructed, but that it is not already initialized. For now, this is done by converting the element type to a C++ long and then to the integer type through the use of static cast and NTL's to_long function. This, of course, assumes such static casts are possible. This function should be changed in the future to avoid using long.

Returns

reference to integer.

Parameters

x	reference to integer to contain output (reference returned).
y	constant reference to field element.
