| idealappr() |
The documentation for idealappr(K,P) implies that in the case that P a prime ideal in the number field K, the element returned will be a uniformizer for P and integral. Will it always be a generator for P when P is principal (as it might then be), or might the function return some other uniformizer? If the latter, would it be relatively expensive to call bnfisprincipal() to ensure that we have a generator when it exists? -- -- John Cremona
