4.1, due on January 30

Difficult: The proof for the Division Algorithm is hard to follow. The example makes sense, but the actual proof is a little fuzzy. Also, I'm having a hard time understanding the difference between indeterminates and variables. They seem like one and the same thing to me.

Reflective: I thought it was interesting how it defines the polynomials with the coefficients as elements of a subring of the entire ring where the indeterminates are.

P.S. - Thanks for no homework due on Friday. That really helps with the test.
