Difficult:
I had a hard time just plain understanding what this section was talking about. I got lost at the relation ~, and I never really found my way back. I found it difficult to understand how they were deciding to define multiplication and addition, and I think this is because I was confused what they were doing with quotients and how they were turning them into an ordered pair and adding them. So much of this section built upon the beginning that I was confused pretty much throughout the whole section because I didn't even understand the beginning.
Connections:
I feel like since I know what an integral domain and a field are, I should be able to better understand this section by connecting the new concepts involving the quotients and applying them to integral domains and fields. I feel pretty comfortable with the definitions of these, so I think that I can use this knowledge to help me make sense of the new application using quotients.
