@AndGiggles,
Unfortunately, I compulsively install everything from source, and to install galois sends me into what they call “dependency hell”. galois requires typing_extensions (not a big deal) and numba, which in turn requires llvmlite, which in turn requires that I install a complete C/C++ development chain in addition to the one that I have.

could you please just send me addition multiplication tables for your implementation of GF(25)? Or, if you can find out, the irreducible polynomial or the primitive element used to generate the implementation? Thank you so much.

P.S. I posted a link to a story about Galois’s duel that ended him, but the elfs have not released it. [They have now! Harry] I hope that you understood the reference when I challenged you to meet me at dawn.
