\begin{definition}
A \emph{commutative ring} is a \href{Rings.pdf}{rings} $\mathbf{R}=\langle R,+,-,0,\cdot\rangle$ such that

$\cdot$ is commutative: $x\cdot y=y \cdot x$


Remark: $Idl(R)=\{ all ideals of R\}$

$I$ is an ideal if $a,b\in I\implies a+b\in I$

and $\forall r \in R\ (r\cdot I\subseteq I)$

\end{definition}

\begin{morphisms}
Let $\mathbf{R}$ and $\mathbf{S}$ be commutative rings with identity. A morphism from $\mathbf{R}$
to $\mathbf{S}$ is a function $h:R\rightarrow S$ that is a homomorphism:

$h(x+y)=h(x)+h(y)$, $h(x\cdot y)=h(x)\cdot h(y)$

Remark:
It follows that $h(0)=0$ and $h(-x)=-h(x)$.

\end{morphisms}
\begin{basic_results}
$0$ is a zero for $\cdot$: $0\cdot x=x$ and $x\cdot 0=0$.
\end{basic_results}
\begin{examples}
\begin{example}
$\langle\mathbb{Z},+,-,0,\cdot\rangle$, the ring of integers with addition, subtraction, zero, and multiplication.
