Introduction to Flint (25min)

Abstract: I will give an introduction to the Flint library, which is a component of Sage used for basic arithmetic in a variety of rings. Flint is a C library that includes highly optimised implementations of integers, rationals, finite fields and padics, and matrices and polynomials (univariate and multivariate) over these rings. There will be some benchmarks to highlight the performance of Flint.
