An example of a commutative additive monoid: the free commutative monoid

This class illustrates a minimal implementation of a commutative monoid.

EXAMPLES:

sage: S = CommutativeAdditiveMonoids().example(); S
An example of a commutative monoid: the free commutative monoid generated by ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd')

sage: S.category()
Category of commutative additive monoids

This is the free semigroup generated by:

sage: S.additive_semigroup_generators()
Family (a, b, c, d)

with product rule given by for all :

sage: (a,b,c,d) = S.additive_semigroup_generators()

We conclude by running systematic tests on this commutative monoid:

sage: TestSuite(S).run(verbose = True)
running ._test_additive_associativity() . . . pass
running ._test_an_element() . . . pass
running ._test_category() . . . pass
running ._test_elements() . . . 
  Running the test suite of self.an_element()
  running ._test_category() . . . pass
