Recall what a generator does.
True or False: Every element in a finite cyclic group has a finite order.
Think about how the structure of finite groups differs from infinite ones.
Given the group of integers modulo 7 with addition as the operation, discuss the generators and their power relations.
Consider how you can reach each element from your generators.
If in a cyclic group of order 12, you find an element of order 4, what other orders are possible for elements in this group?
