Document Summary
Mata02 - lecture 15 - exponents in modules (february 25th, 2019) Due to modules, there are specific things we can see based on exponents. Let"s start with the row that starts with 1. It"s for this reason why the entire row for 1 is 1 (because 1 to the exponent of anything is 1). From this table, there are a couple of things you can see: there are repetitions made in each row (for example, see how the row that starts with 1. This is because since we are dealing with mod 7, 6 in terms of mod 7 would be 1. Since 12 is a multiple of 6, it is also in terms of mod 1) x 6 = 1 mod 7; (x 6 ) 2 = 1 mod 7; x 12 = 1 mod 7 x 7. Now let"s try constructing the table for mod 11. x 6.
