This specialization of niederreiter_base2_engine supports up to 4720 dimensions. |
Binary irreducible polynomials (primes in the ring GF(2)[X], evaluated at X=2) were generated while condition max(prime) < 216 was satisfied.
There are exactly 4720 such primes, which yields a Niederreiter base 2 table for 4720 dimensions.
However, it is possible to provide your own table to niederreiter_base2_engine should the default one be insufficient.
