Multiplicative order
From Rosetta Code
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
The multiplicative order of a relative to m is the least positive integer n such that a^n is 1 (modulo m). For example, the multiplicative order of 37 relative to 1000 is 100 because 37^100 is 1 (modulo 1000), and no number smaller than 100 would do.
One possible algorithm that is efficient also for large numbers is the following: By the Chinese Remainder Theorem, it's enough to calculate the multiplicative order for each prime exponent p^k of m, and combine the results with the least common multiple operation. Now the order of a wrt. to p^k must divide Φ(p^k). Call this number t, and determine it's factors q^e. Since each multiple of the order will also yield 1 when used as exponent for a, it's enough to find the least d such that (q^d)*(t/(q^e)) yields 1 when used as exponent.
Implement a routine to calculate the multiplicative order along these lines. You may assume that routines to determine the factorization into prime powers are available in some library.
An algorithm for the multiplicative order can be found in Bach & Shallit, Algorithmic Number Theory, Volume I: Efficient Algorithms, The MIT Press, 1996:
Exercise 5.8, page 115:
Suppose you are given a prime p and a complete factorization of p-1 . Show how to compute the order of an element a in (Z/(p))* using O((lg p)4/(lg lg p)) bit operations.
Solution, page 337:
Let the prime factorization of p-1 be q1e1q2e2...qkek . We use the following observation: if x^((p-1)/qifi) = 1 (mod p) , and fi=ei or x^((p-1)/qifi+1) != 1 (mod p) , then qiei-fi||ordp x . (This follows by combining Exercises 5.1 and 2.10.) Hence it suffices to find, for each i , the exponent fi such that the condition above holds.
This can be done as follows: first compute q1e1, q2e2, ... , qkek . This can be done using O((lg p)2) bit operations. Next, compute y1=(p-1)/q1e1, ... , yk=(p-1)/qkek . This can be done using O((lg p)2) bit operations. Now, using the binary method, compute x1=ay1(mod p), ... , xk=ayk(mod p) . This can be done using O(k(lg p)3) bit operations, and k=O((lg p)/(lg lg p)) by Theorem 8.8.10. Finally, for each i , repeatedly raise xi to the qi-th power (mod p) (as many as ei-1 times), checking to see when 1 is obtained. This can be done using O((lg p)3) steps. The total cost is dominated by O(k(lg p)3) , which is O(k(lg p)4/(lg lg p)) .

powerMod :: (Integral a, Integral b) => a -> a -> b -> a
powerMod m _ 0 = 1

x' = x `rem` m
f _ 0 y = y
f a d y = g a d where
g b i | even i = g (b*b `rem` m) (i `quot` 2)

powerMod m _ _ = error "powerMod: negative exponent"
to efficiently calculate powers modulo some Integral, we get
multOrder a m

The dyadic verb mo converts its arguments to exact numbers a and m, executes mopk on the factorization of m, and combines the result with the least common multiple operation.
mo=: 4 : 0
a=. x: x
m=. x: y
assert. 1=a+.m
*./ a mopk"1 |: __ q: m
)
The dyadic verb mopk expects a pair of prime and exponent in the second argument. It sets up a verb pm to calculate powers module p^k. Then calculates Φ(p^k) as t, factorizes it again into q and e, and calculates a^(t/(q^e)) as x. Now, it finds the least d such that subsequent application of pm yields 1. Finally, it combines the exponents q^d into a product.
mopk=: 4 : 0
a=. x: x
'p k'=. x: y
pm=. (p^k)&|@^
t=. (p-1)*p^k-1 NB. totient
'q e'=. __ q: t
x=. a pm t%q^e
d=. (1<x)+x (pm i. 1:)&> (e-1) */\@$&.> q

[edit] Mathematica
In Mathematica this is really easy, as this function is built-in:
MultiplicativeOrder[k,n]
gives the multiplicative order of k modulo n, defined as the smallest integer m such that k^m == 1 mod n.
MultiplicativeOrder[k,n,{r1,r2,...}]
gives the generalized multiplicative order of k modulo n, defined as the smallest integer m such that k^m==ri mod n for some i.
Examples:
MultiplicativeOrder[37, 1000]
MultiplicativeOrder[10^100 + 1, 7919] (*10^3th prime number Prime[1000]*)
MultiplicativeOrder[10^1000 + 1, 15485863] (*10^6th prime number*)
MultiplicativeOrder[10^10000 - 1, 22801763489] (*10^9th prime number*)
MultiplicativeOrder[13, 1 + 10^80]
MultiplicativeOrder[11, 1 + 10^100]
gives back:
