5.2, due February 11... My Birthday!!!!

1. The most difficult thing for me in this section is about the same thing as last section, I'm having a hard time getting used to the way we denote the congruence classes modulo p(x). Every time I read a theorem or a proof, I feel like I understand it until I see that symbol and my mind automatically tells me that we're dividing p(x). I know it's something that I just need to get used to and stop whining about, but it's giving me a hard time!
2. Like the other sections we've been discussing, I really like how we build on the previous information, and particularly on chapter 2 in this chapter. It boosts my confidence to read something that I've already done in the integers, and it helps me to think that I can understand it and do it with functions!
