Section 5.1, Due Friday, February 10

The section for today was 5.1: Congruence in F[x] and Congruence-Class Arithmetic.

The most difficult part of this section, for me, was the concept of infinitely many congruence classes for R[x]/(x^2+1).

I think that it is really interesting/convenient that the ideas and rules about congruence classes transfer so nicely to the polynomial rings.
