# GAP Package cvec

This package provides an implementation of compact vectors over finite fields. Contrary to earlier implementations no table lookups are used but only word-based processor arithmetic. This allows for bigger finite fields and higher speed.

The current version of this package is version 2.7.4, released on 2019-07-17. For more information, please refer to the package manual. There is also a README file.

## Dependencies

This package requires GAP version >=4.9
