Let <math>E</math> be an [[elliptic curve]] defined over the finite field <math>\mathbb{F}_q_{q}</math>, where <math>q=p^n</math> for <math>p</math> a prime and <math>n</math> an integer <math>\geq 1</math>. Over a field of characteristic <math>\neq 2, 3</math> an elliptic curve can be given by a (short) Weierstrass equation
