Description

Adds a method to algebraic field for computing the subfield spanned by some elements.

It may be useful, for example, to transform polynomials over QQbar, or over AA, into polynomials over a number field (which can be then treated by singular).

Wouldn't the new method be redundant with number_field_elements_from_algebraics?

comment:3 Changed 8 years ago by mmarco

Yes, you are right.

WONTFIX then? Or should we add a wrapper of the existing function with the user interface that you suggested?

comment:5 Changed 8 years ago by mmarco

The only thing that my patch adds to the existing function is the possibility to choose the name of the generator. As far as i am concerned, it would be ok to close this ticket as wontfix, and, if somebody considers that the name of the generator is important, open a ticket to add that option to the existing function.

Anyways, i would like to run some tests to compare my code with the existing one. Most likely my code will be worse, but it would be worth to check it, just in case.

Ok, my code is definitely worse.
