Hi,
I am not sure if this is a right forum to ask this.
how to calculate (x + 1) mod (x³ + 1) am giving small values but actually i want to know the procedure to take poly.
Thanks
 

The resul will be (x+1) because its degree is less than degree of polynomial (x^3+1)

For example x^5+x^4 +x^2+1(mod(x^3+1))=-x^2-x+x^2+1=-x+1

Algorithm is dividing polynomials, it is similar to algorithm of dividing real numbers
See R.Blahut "Art of Error Correcting Codes"
or similar books
 

Hi ,
Thanks for reply.
I didnot mention one thing. THis is in galois field.
i want to know the ans and procedure for this.

(x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x + 1) mod (x^8 + 1)
in GF(2 ^ 8)

Thanks
Senthil
