T - the type of the field elementspublic interface Field<T>
Interface representing a field.
Classes implementing this interface will often be singletons.

T getZero()
The additive identity is the element e0 of the field such that for all elements a of the field, the equalities a + e0 = e0 + a = a hold.
T getOne()
The multiplicative identity is the element e1 of the field such that for all elements a of the field, the equalities a × e1 = e1 × a = a hold.
