Polya's dictum : "if there's a problem you can't figure out, there's a simpler problem you can't (?) figure out" seems wrong. Moreover, the opposite sentence "if there's a problem you can't figure out, there's a simpler problem you can figure out" is obviously a reformulation from the works of René Descartes.
"as every simple, abelian group must be cyclic of prime order" seems to be wrong; actually as every simple, abelian group must be products of cyclic groups (may not be of prime order).
- Every simple abelian group is cyclic of prime order. For an abelian group to be simple it must not have any proper non-trivial subgroups, because all its subgroups are normal. --Zundark 07:49, 9 Apr 2004 (UTC)
