Function: ellrootno
Section: elliptic_curves
C-Name: ellrootno
Prototype: lGDG
Help: ellrootno(E,{p}): root number for the L-function of the elliptic
 curve E/Q at a prime p (including 0, for the infinite place); global root
 number if p is omitted.
Doc: $E$ being an \kbd{ell} structure over $\Q$ as output by \kbd{ellinit},
 this function computes the local root number of its $L$-series at the place
 $p$ (at the infinite place if $p = 0$). If $p$ is omitted, return the global
 root number. Note that the global root number is the sign of the functional
 equation and conjecturally is the parity of the rank of the \idx{Mordell-Weil
 group}. The equation for $E$ needs not be minimal at $p$, but if the model
 is already minimal the function will run faster.
