$$ 0+1\,=\,1+0\,=\,1 \,. $$
We leave to the reader the verification of this statement for each $a,b \in \Fb$.\\
This property can be formalized by saying that both the sum in $\ZZ$ and the sum in $\Fb$ are
\emph{commutative} operations.
\\ In a more general setting, a sum operation on a set is called commutative if for any $a,b$ in
that set we have
$$ a+b\,=\,b+a\,.$$
\smallskip
Now we
examine the behaviour of take a close look at $0 \in \ZZ$.
Taken Considering any
other integer
number $a$, we have that $a+0=0+a=a$,
as for example
$3+0=0+3=3$, so $3+0=0+3=3$. In other words, summing a number with zero
gives, as result, again that number. leaves the number unchanged (and this happens \emph{only} for $0$).
\\
Also the bit The same happens with $0 \in \Fb$,
has the same behaviour, since
in $\Fb$ $0+0=0$ and
$0+1=1+0=1.$\\
We can formalize this statement by saying $0+1=1+0=1$.\\
In a general setting, if we have a sum operation with a special element $e$ such that
$a+e=e+a=a$ for any $a$ in the set, then we say that
$0$ $e$ is the \emph{neutral element} of the
sum, both operation.\\
Therefore, we can say that $0\in \Fb$ is the neutral element of the sum in
$\ZZ$ and $\Fb$, while $0\in\ZZ$
is the neutral element in
$\Fb$. $ZZ$.
