a start but needs work!

In [[mathematics]] a Galois Field is a field having a finite number of elements.

Galois fields are one of two types:

*The integers modulo a prime number ''p'', represented by Zp
*The polynomials with coefficients modulo a prime number ''p'' having operations modulo with an irreducible n-degree polynomial r(x), represented by Fp^n

A Galois field with q=pn elements is typically denoted by GFq or Fq.
