7.9, due on April Fools!

1. I don't think I'd be able to prove Theorem 7.46 or 7.49. Also when they started doing the 2-cycle transposition, such as (1234) = (14)(13)(12), I can't follow it as easily as say, (243)(1243). I hope we'll go over transpositions in class.

2. THIS SECTION WAS SO MUCH EASIER than the past few! I love the new notation for permutation, it is much more economic and interesting - it makes you think a little more. I also think it is interesting how the First Isomorphism Theorem keeps on coming up in the sections.
