An example of a finite monoid: the integers mod \(n\)

This class illustrates a minimal implementation of a finite monoid.

EXAMPLES:

sage: S = FiniteMonoids().example(); S
An example of a finite multiplicative monoid: the integers modulo 12

sage: S.category()
Category of finitely generated finite enumerated monoids

We conclude by running systematic tests on this monoid:

class Element

Bases: sage.structure.element_wrapper.ElementWrapper

wrapped_class

alias of sage.rings.integer.Integer

an_element()

Returns an element of the monoid, as per Sets.ParentMethods.an_element().

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.an_element()
6

one()

Return the one of the monoid, as per Monoids.ParentMethods.one().

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.one()
1

product(x, y)

Return the product of two elements \(x\) and \(y\) of the monoid, as per Semigroups.ParentMethods.product().

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.product(M(3), M(5))
3

semigroup_generators()

Returns a set of generators for self, as per Semigroups.ParentMethods.semigroup_generators(). Currently this returns all integers mod \(n\), which is of course far from optimal!

EXAMPLES:

sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.semigroup_generators()
Family (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)
