Modular Integers.

There are many ways to implement the rings $ \mbox{${\mathbb Z}$}$/m$ \mbox{${\mathbb Z}$}$ and even more for the fields $ \mbox{${\mathbb Z}$}$/p$ \mbox{${\mathbb Z}$}$ (where p is a prime). Let us restrict to the fields $ \mbox{${\mathbb Z}$}$/p$ \mbox{${\mathbb Z}$}$. Here are some examples.
