Topic: horner form in ring_nf


Bhavik Mehta (Nov 08 2023 at 16:54):

Has ring_nf lost the ability to rewrite into horner normal form? I found this useful as a non-terminal use of ring_nf, as well as for evaluation. I can't see it in the docs or source for ring_nf in mathlib4

Yes.

It no longer uses horner normal form internally, but it could rewrite into horner form if desired for other reasons
