Suppose is a binary operation on a set S.
Which statement best describes problem?
Must have either an identity or a zero (if exists), but not both.
Must only have at most one idempotent.
An idempotent (if exists) must be either an identity or a zero.
If it has an identity and a zero, then they must be the same element.
