| #### D.4.9.5 modberlekampMassey Procedure from library `ffmodstd.lib` (see ffmodstd_lib). Usage: modberlekampMassey(L [, i]); L list, i int Return: The minimal polynomial f (w.r.t. the i-th variable) generated by the sequence (L[j]), j = 1, 2, ... . Note: The procedure first construct polynomials f and g of degrees size(L) and size(L)-1, respectively from the sequence L[j] (elements from the field Q) for j>0 as described in [1]. It then returns the denominator polynomial d obtained by applying the SINGULAR command fareypoly to the input (g,f). If the ground ring has n variables, the procedure returns d in a polynomial ring k[var(i)] (k is a field) for some i<=n. In this case, an optional parameter i (default 0) can be provided.

    LIB "ffmodstd.lib";
    ring rr=0, (x,y,z), dp;
    list L = 150,3204,79272,2245968, 70411680, 2352815424, 81496927872;
    modberlekampMassey(L);// default w.r.t x
    ==> x3-66x2+1296x-7776
    modberlekampMassey(L,3);// returns an output in the ring Q[z]
    ==> z3-66z2+1296z-7776
