| 1 | If a , b ε Z we say that a is less than b and write unc If we only know ( or care ) that unc we write unc ( b — a is the shorthand notation for the more accurate B + ( -a ) . |
| 2 | We say that a divides b ( or that a is a divisor of b ) and we write unc there exists unc such that |
| 3 | ( ii ) If a ε Z is neither 0 nor a unit we say that a is irreducible iff , whenever a is expressed as a product , a = bc with b , c ε Z , it follows that either b or c is a unit . |
| 4 | ( iii ) If a ε Z is neither 0 nor a unit we say that a is prime iff , whenever a divides a product , that is , a\bc where b c ε Z it follows that a\b or a\c ( or both ) . |
| 5 | The strategy of this particular proof is to head directly from hypothesis to conclusion as follows : Let a be any prime element of Z. We wish to prove that a is irreducible . |
| 6 | Well is that fetching I mean is that a is that the routine that 's picking information back from the lexicon or something ? |
