LinBox <--> Sage interface

[Charles Bouillaguet]

Dear all,

I am currently working on the Sage <--> LinBox interface (see https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/21327). When this will be over, the sage interface in LinBox will no longer be used.

Here is an exhaustive list of **Linbox** functions currently used in sage :

Sparse matrices modulo a small prime (Modular<int>):

*) rank

*) solve

Dense matrices over the integers:

*) rank

*) det

*) minpoly

*) charpoly

Many functions from FFLAS/FFPACK are also included. I would like to bind more functionalities, such as sparse det, minpoly, charpoly, mod n and over ZZ. However, I don't know what is is good condition (i.e. working correctly) and what is broken/unreliable. Please tell me what is worth hooking into sage!

Best wishes,
