Calculating powmod... |
Hello, I'm interested in calculating "powmod"'s such as: Mod(2^9182347891540, 9182347891541) However, when I ran the function, it gave an error: *** length (lg) overflowActually, I'm really interested to see if a number is a base 2 pseudoprime. I saw the ispseudoprime function, but that uses the strong test, and I just need to know:
2^(n-1) == 1 (mod n)I'm only going to be working with 64-bit inputs. Is there some setting I need to change in pari to be able to find out the above? Or is there some function I might have overlooked that performs that calculation? Thanks for your time.
