An example of a finite monoid: the integers mod
This class illustrates a minimal implementation of a finite monoid.
EXAMPLES:
sage: S = FiniteMonoids().example(); S
An example of a finite multiplicative monoid: the integers modulo 12
sage: S.category()
Category of finite monoids
We conclude by running systematic tests on this monoid:
sage: TestSuite(S).run(verbose = True)
running ._test_an_element() . . . pass
running ._test_associativity() . . . pass
running ._test_category() . . . pass
running ._test_elements() . . .
Running the test suite of self.an_element()
running ._test_category() . . . pass
running ._test_eq() . . . pass
running ._test_not_implemented_methods() . . . pass
running ._test_pickling() . . . pass

running ._test_elements_eq() . . . pass

Bases: sage.structure.element_wrapper.ElementWrapper
Returns an element of the monoid, as per Sets.ParentMethods.an_element().
EXAMPLES:
sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.an_element()
6
Returns the one of the monoid, as per Monoids.ParentMethods.one().
EXAMPLES:
sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.one()
1
Returns the one of the monoid, as per Semigroups.ParentMethods.product().
EXAMPLES:
sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.product(M(3), M(5))
3
Returns a set of generators for self, as per Semigroups.ParentMethods.semigroup_generators(). Currently this returns all integers mod , which is of course far from optimal!
EXAMPLES:
sage: M = FiniteMonoids().example()
sage: M.semigroup_generators()
