Hi all,
I would like to ask you, about the function irreducible.. http://www.mathworks.com/help/toolbox/mupad/stdlib/irreducible.html
I want to check if a polynomial is irreducible, but I have problem on how to declare the polynomial..I tried the examples o the abov link but matlab returns " ??? Undefined function or variable 'x'."..

syms x
evalin(symengine, 'irreducible', x^2 - 2)

You have to declare it as a polynomial over GaloisField, e.g.
F = evalin(symengine, 'poly(x^2-2, Dom::GaloisField(5^7)))
feval(symengine, 'irreducible', F)

hi I want use this function for a loop of polynomial but I cant change the polynomial with symbolic variableas.
for example i want this: syms x z=x^a(n,1)+x^a(n,2)+1 for i=1 we have z=x^19+x^12+1 %%a is a vector and change base for i=1:n i want check the z polynomial is irreducible or not?
F = evalin(symengine, 'poly(z,Dom::GaloisField(2))') F =
poly(z, [z], Dom::GaloisField(2, 1, poly(X7, [X7], IntMod(2)))) feval(symengine, 'irreducible', F)
ans =
TRUE
but this polynomial in not irreducible
the mistake of this answer come from [z] instead of [x]!!!!
please help me to solve it

thank you Walter! I tried your answer and matlab returned "`proc irreducible(p) ... end`" in both cases, (x^2 - 2) and (x^2 + 2).. What am I doing wrong? I am using matlab R2009b..

Hmmm.... Say, are you perhaps using the Maple symbolic engine? That was still possible in R2009b even though MuPAD was the default. Your ending of the procedure with "end" is a clue, in that MuPAD ends its procedures with "end_proc" but Maple ends with "end".
The internal Maple name for the procedure was irreduc so you could _try_
feval(symengine, 'irreduc', x^2 - 2)
If that doesn't work, go back to irreducible but with feval

feval did the trick for me:
>> syms x
>> feval(symengine, 'irreducible', x^2 + 2)
ans =
TRUE

Thank you so much both! it works! May I ask an other question? Is there a way to find out if a polynomial over galois field is irreducible?
