== History ==
The method was proposed by [[Elwyn Berlekamp]] in his 1970 work<ref name=":0" /> on polynomial factorization over finite fields. His original work lacked a formal [[Correctness (computer science)|correctness]] proof<ref name=":1" /> and was later refined and modified for arbitrary finite fields by [[Michael O. Rabin|Michael Rabin]].<ref name=":1" /> In 1986 René Peralta proposed a similar algorithm<ref>{{cite journal |author = Tsz-Wo Sze |title= On taking square roots without quadratic nonresidues over finite fields |journal= Mathematics of Computation|year= 2011 |volume= 80 |issue= 275 |pages = 1797–1811 |issn = 00255718 |doi = 10.1090/s0025-5718-2011-02419-1 |arxiv =0812.2591 |s2cid= 10249895 }}</ref> for finding square roots in <math>\mathbb Z_p</math>.<ref>{{cite journal |author = R.
