Question
The text states that a finite field can be considered
as a vector space over its prime subfield `F_p`.
Why is this a valid way to view the structure of F:
A) F is a finite extension of its prime subfield `F_p`,
which allows us to define scalar multiplication using
the elements of `F_p`.
B) The elements of F must all be generated by adding the
multiplicative identity to itself, making them multiples of `1_F`
?
