public Interface Field<T>

Interface representing a field.

Classes implementing this interface will often be singletons.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
public T	Returns: multiplicative identity of the field getOne() Get the multiplicative identity of the field.
public Class<? extends FieldElement<T>>	Returns: The `Class` object that represents the runtime class of this object. getRuntimeClass() Returns the runtime class of the FieldElement.
public T	Returns: additive identity of the field getZero() Get the additive identity of the field.

getOne	back to summary
public T getOne() Get the multiplicative identity of the field. The multiplicative identity is the element e₁ of the field such that for all elements a of the field, the equalities a × e₁ = e₁ × a = a hold. Returns:T multiplicative identity of the field

getOne

public T getOne()

Get the multiplicative identity of the field.

The multiplicative identity is the element e₁ of the field such that for all elements a of the field, the equalities a × e₁ = e₁ × a = a hold.

getRuntimeClass back to summary

getRuntimeClass	back to summary
public Class<? extends FieldElement<T>> getRuntimeClass() Returns the runtime class of the FieldElement. Returns:Class<? extends FieldElement<T>> The `Class` object that represents the runtime class of this object.

public Class<? extends FieldElement<T>> getRuntimeClass()

Returns the runtime class of the FieldElement.

Returns:Class<? extends FieldElement<T>>: The Class object that represents the runtime class of this object.

getZero	back to summary
public T getZero() Get the additive identity of the field. The additive identity is the element e₀ of the field such that for all elements a of the field, the equalities a + e₀ = e₀ + a = a hold. Returns:T additive identity of the field

getZero

public T getZero()

Get the additive identity of the field.

The additive identity is the element e₀ of the field such that for all elements a of the field, the equalities a + e₀ = e₀ + a = a hold.
