Trait SqrtField

pub trait SqrtField: Field {
    // Required methods
    fn legendre(&self) -> LegendreSymbol;
    fn sqrt(&self) -> Option<Self>;
}

Expand description

This trait represents an element of a field that has a square root operation described for it.

Required Methods§

Returns the Legendre symbol of the field element.

Returns the square root of the field element, if it is quadratic residue.

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
