For the first algorithm shown, the issue is that f '(x) = 1. For the others it would seem that math would involve multiply or xor of the values 0 and 1, and I don't see how non-zero values other than 1 are produced. [[User:Rcgldr|Rcgldr]] ([[User talk:Rcgldr|talk]]) 14:38, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
:As your polynomial is square free and all its factors are quadratic, the first algorithms to be considered are Berlekamp and Cantor–Zassenhaus algorithms. Berlekamp algorithm has a loop on all elements of the ground field (here GF(2^16)), and Cantor–Zassenhaus algorithm chooses at random polynomials with coefficients in GF(2^16). This is this way that polynomial coefficients that are not in GF(2) are introduced. [[User:D.Lazard|D.Lazard]] ([[User talk:D.Lazard|talk]]) 15:41, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
