Section 8.1, due on November 23

The most difficult part of this material for me was understanding how you would write an element of a group that is a direct product of a bunch of different groups that don't have the same operation. Do you do it like a cross product like we had learned before?

The most interesting part of this material for me was the fact that just because G is a group that makes up some cross product, doesn't mean that G is a subgroup of that cross product.
