What is the group    Z/nZ ??
$${What}\:{is}\:{the}\:{group}\:\:\:\:\mathbb{Z}/\boldsymbol{{n}}\mathbb{Z}\:?? \\ $$

Z is all whole numbers.  e.g. ∀x∈R⇒⌊x⌋∈Z     Z/{0} means all whole numbers (integers)  excluding   0     I don′t really remember what  Z/nZ means
$$\mathbb{Z}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{all}\:\mathrm{whole}\:\mathrm{numbers}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{e}.\mathrm{g}.\:\forall{x}\in\mathbb{R}\Rightarrow\lfloor{x}\rfloor\in\mathbb{Z} \\ $$$$\: \\ $$$$\mathbb{Z}/\left\{\mathrm{0}\right\}\:\mathrm{means}\:\mathrm{all}\:\mathrm{whole}\:\mathrm{numbers}\:\left(\mathrm{integers}\right) \\ $$$$\boldsymbol{\mathrm{excluding}}\:\:\:\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{I}\:\mathrm{don}'\mathrm{t}\:\mathrm{really}\:\mathrm{remember}\:\mathrm{what} \\ $$$$\mathbb{Z}/\boldsymbol{{n}}\mathbb{Z}\:\mathrm{means} \\ $$

all whole numbers excluding 0 is  Z − {0}
$${all}\:{whole}\:{numbers}\:{excluding}\:\mathrm{0}\:{is} \\ $$$$\mathbb{Z}\:−\:\left\{\mathrm{0}\right\} \\ $$

Z/{0} and Z−{0} are the same
$$\mathbb{Z}/\left\{\mathrm{0}\right\}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathbb{Z}−\left\{\mathrm{0}\right\}\:\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{same} \\ $$
