Creation

gen Method

Elements can also be created by specifying the coordinates with respect to the basis of the number field:

    (L::number_field)(c::Vector{NumFieldElem}) -> NumFieldElem

Given a number field $L/K$ of degree $d$ and a vector c length $d$, this constructs the element a with coordinates(a) == c.
