Class GenericGF


  • public final class GenericGF
    extends java.lang.Object

    This class contains utility methods for performing mathematical operations over the Galois Fields. Operations use a given primitive polynomial in calculations.

    Throughout this package, elements of the GF are represented as an int for convenience and speed (but at the cost of memory).

        public GenericGF​(int primitive,
                         int size,
                         int b)
        Create a representation of GF(size) using the given primitive polynomial.
        Parameters:
        primitive - irreducible polynomial whose coefficients are represented by the bits of an int, where the least-significant bit represents the constant coefficient
        size - the size of the field
        b - the factor b in the generator polynomial can be 0- or 1-based (g(x) = (x+a^b)(x+a^(b+1))...(x+a^(b+2t-1))). In most cases it should be 1, but for QR code it is 0.
