    The operations of addition and multiplication in real numbers have direct parallels with operations which may be applied to pairs of integers, pairs of integers mod another positive integer, vectors in Rn , matrices mapping Rn to Rm , polynomials with real or integer coefficients, etc. The properties of the operations may be slightly different in each application, but there remains a subset of the properties of + and ·, (addition and multiplication), which are common to all these examples...
