    Sub Algorithms Base Values

    ? Write a sub-algorithm (subroutine) that given a number N in base 10 and a base value Base between 2 and 10 (inclusive), returns the representation of the decimal value N in the desired Base.

    Prove that every ideal of F[x], where F is any field, is principal

    An ideal I of a commutative ring R is said to be principal if it is generated by a single element, that is, if I is of the form {ra|r element of R} for some fixed a element of R. Notice that Corollary 6.6 (below) shows that ideals of F[x] of the form I_F,a are principal. Now prove that every ideal of F[x], where F is any fi
