          erasures_loc = Polynomial([GF2int(1)]) # just to init because we will multiply, so it must be 1 so that the multiplication starts correctly without nulling any term
          # erasures_loc is very simple to compute: erasures_loc = prod(1 - x*alpha[j]**i) for i in erasures_pos and where alpha is the alpha chosen to evaluate polynomials (here in this library it's gf(3)). To generate c*x where c is a constant, we simply generate a Polynomial([c, 0]) where 0 is the constant and c is positionned to be the coefficient for x^1.

          for i in erasures_pos:
              erasures_loc = erasures_loc * (Polynomial([GF2int(1)]) - Polynomial([GF2int(self.generator)**i, 0]))
