Galois Field Arithmetic - tools

Galois Field arithmetic forms the backbone of erasure-coded storage systems, most famously the Reed-Solomon erasure code. A Galois Field is defined over w-bit words and is termed GF(2w). As such, the elements of a Galois Field are the integers 0, 1, . . ., 2^w u2212 1. Galois Field arithmetic defines addition and multiplication over these closed sets of integers in such a way that they work as you would hope they would work. Specifically, every number has a unique multiplicative inverse. Moreover, there is a value, typically the value 2, which has the property that you can enumerate all of the non-zero elements of the field by taking that value to successively higher powers. This package contains miscellaneous tools for working with gf-complete.

Installing gf_poly command is simple. just copy one of the above commands for your operating system and paste it into terminal. This command is available for Debian, Ubuntu, Kali and Raspbian operating systems. Once you run the command it will install the latest version of gf_poly 2026 package in your OS.
