Section 8.4, due on December 3

The most difficult part of this section for me was pickinga part the different notation so that I got the full meaning of what it was trying to say. Also, In reading th proof of the Second Sylow Theorem, I found parts of it to be confusing. I also found it a little confusing when going over the proof of the First Sylow Theorem.

The most interesting part of this section to me was the fact that conjugacy is an equivalence relation. I was wondering if this means that given any equivalence relation, if that means that the equivalence classes partition whatever mega set you are talking about? I think this would be true, but for some reason it just dawned on me how cool that really is.
