##  <Description>
##  constructs an extension <A>L</A> of the field <A>K</A> by one root of the

##  <A>L</A> is a field whose <Ref Attr="LeftActingDomain"/> value is

##  The  polynomial <A>f</A> is the <Ref Attr="DefiningPolynomial"/> value
##  of <A>L</A> and the attribute
##  <Ref Attr="RootOfDefiningPolynomial"/>
##  of <A>L</A> holds a root of <A>f</A> in <A>L</A>.
##  By default this root is printed as <C>a</C>, this string can be
##  overwritten with the optional argument <A>nam</A>. <P/>
##  
##  The first version of the command checks that the polynomial <A>f</A>
##  is an irreducible polynomial over <A>K</A>. This check is skipped with
##  the <C>NC</C> variant.

#F  IdealDecompositionsOfPolynomial( <f> [:"onlyone"] )  finds ideal decompositions of rational f
##
##  <#GAPDoc Label="IdealDecompositionsOfPolynomial">
##  <ManSection>
##  <Func Name="IdealDecompositionsOfPolynomial" Arg='pol'/>
##
##  <Description>
##  Let <M>f</M> be a univariate, rational, irreducible, polynomial. A
##  pair <M>g</M>,<M>h</M> of polynomials of degree strictly
##  smaller than that of <M>f</M>, such that <M>f(x)|g(h(x))</M> is
##  called an ideal decomposition. In the context of field
##  extensions, if <M>\alpha</M> is a root of <M>f</M> in a suitable extension
##  and <M>Q</M> the field of rational numbers. Such decompositions correspond
##  to (proper) subfields <M>Q &lt; Q(\beta) &lt; Q(\alpha)</M>,
##  where <M>g</M> is the minimal polynomial of <M>\beta</M>.
##  This function determines such decompositions up to equality of the subfields
##  <M>Q(\beta)</M>, thus determining subfields of a given algebraic extension.
##  It returns a list of pairs <M>[g,h]</M> (and an empty list if no such
##  decomposition exists). If the option <A>onlyone</A> is given it returns at
##  most one such decomposition (and performs faster).
##  <Example><![CDATA[
##  gap> x:=X(Rationals,"x");;pol:=x^8-24*x^6+144*x^4-288*x^2+144;;
##  gap> l:=IdealDecompositionsOfPolynomial(pol);
##  [ [ x^2+72*x+144, x^6-20*x^4+60*x^2-36 ],
##    [ x^2-48*x+144, x^6-21*x^4+84*x^2-48 ],
##    [ x^2+288*x+17280, x^6-24*x^4+132*x^2-288 ],
##    [ x^4-24*x^3+144*x^2-288*x+144, x^2 ] ]
##  gap> List(l,x->Value(x[1],x[2])/pol);
##  [ x^4-16*x^2-8, x^4-18*x^2+33, x^4-24*x^2+120, 1 ]
##  gap> IdealDecompositionsOfPolynomial(pol:onlyone);
##  [ [ x^2+72*x+144, x^6-20*x^4+60*x^2-36 ] ]
##  ]]></Example>
##  In this example the given polynomial is regular with Galois group
##  <M>Q_8</M>, as expected we get four proper subfields.
