order (of a ring)
The order of a ring is the order (http://planetmath.org/OrderGroup) of its additive group, i.e. (http://planetmath.org/Ie) the number of elements of . The order of can be denoted as . If is finite, then is said to be a finite ring.
This definition of order is not necessarily standard. Please see http://planetmath.org/?op=getobj&from=corrections&id=12149this correction and the posts attached to it for more details.
