In the second day of the class, the professor continues on the definition of a field.
Definition of a field
Combined with a part from the first class, we have a complete definition as follow:
A field is a set "F' with two binary operations +,x defind on it, and two special elements 0 ≠ 1 such that
F1: commutative law
a, b 
F: a+b=b+a and a.b=b.a
F2: associative law
a, b, c F: (a+b)+c=a+(b+c) and (a.b).c= a.(b.c)
F3: the existence of identity element
a+o=a and a.1=a
