→Delete this task? (edit: looks like no, just need to better describe the algorithm)
Line 109:
::::::: In our p=13 Fp world, the square roots of -6, or 7 simply do not exist. And - I never said it is the same - it is an analogy i feel useful to try to understand things , the square root of -1 do not exists either (in R) . --[[User:G.Brougnard|G.Brougnard]] ([[User talk:G.Brougnard|talk]]) 16:43, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
::::::::: Analogies are fine. And they can be useful for describing algorithms. But that does not mean that they are always adequate descriptions. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 19:18, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
