GAP package FactInt

Advanced Methods for Factoring Integers

This package provides routines for factoring integers, in particular:

  • Pollard's p-1
  • Williams' p+1
  • Elliptic Curves Method (ECM)
  • Continued Fraction Algorithm (CFRAC)
  • Multiple Polynomial Quadratic Sieve (MPQS)
It also provides access to Richard P. Brent's tables of factors of integers of the form b^k +/- 1.
