Status: Stable

documented, exercised by the test suite and/or worked examples, with no known limitations recorded.

Description

FLINT`Factor[p] gives the irreducible factorisation of the polynomial p over the rationals, computed directly via FLINT (fmpq_mpoly_factor), as Times[const, factor^exp, ...]. Multivariate. Returns unevaluated if p is not a polynomial over Q.
