Problem 2:

Write a function that takes as input a positive integer nn and outputs the first nn levels of the cyclotomic Z3\ZZ_3-extension of Q\QQ as a tower of relative extensions (so each field has degree 3 over the one below it). The code should 'work' in general, though of course it will likely be very, very slow as nn gets bigger. How big of nn can you give as input before this starts taking a long time or getting slow?

Figuring out what I mean by "the cyclotomic Z3\ZZ_3 extension of Q\QQ" is part of this problem. If you don't know, start by asking any student of Ralph Greenberg.
