[GAP Forum] GF usage

[Justin Walker]

Hi, all,

Following the documentation, I tried the following, with the indicated 
success:

gap> K:=GF(GF(13^2),2);
AsField( GF(13^2), GF(13^4) )
gap> F:=GF(GF(13^2),3);
Error, no method found! For debugging hints type ?Recovery from 
NoMethodFound
Error, no 1st choice method found for `ZOp' on 1 arguments called from

gap> L:=GF(GF(17^2),2);
Error, no method found! For debugging hints type ?Recovery from 
NoMethodFound
Error, no 1st choice method found for `ZOp' on 1 arguments called from
Z( p ^ d ) called from
...

Is this an unwritten limitation?

Regards,

Justin
