Section 6.1, Due February 17

Part I: What was the most difficult part of the material for you?

I was most confused on the example given for what an ideal isn't. While the concept and term of ideal seems to be understandable, the book didn't seem to give a concrete simple example of a principal ideal generate by some number.


Part II: Write something reflective about the reading. 

While I have never heard of the math term ideal before, the book seemed really clear about what it was and it made a lot of sense with the example they use at the beginning of the chapter. Normally I don't understand new math terms very well at first, but this one was quite easy to grasp.
