On the complementary factor in a new congruence algorithm

In an earlier paper the authors described an algorithm for determining the quasi-order, Qt(b), of tmodb, where t and b are mutually prime. Here Qt(b) is the smallest positive integer n such that tn=±1modb, and the algorithm determined the sign (−1) ϵ ,  ϵ =0,1, on the right of the congruence. In thi...
