Hi, I guess that some elementary number theory texts have this; I'm not sure. I published a paper in JSL around 1971 (vol. 36) showing that the first order...

This fact goes back to Frobenius (and Weierstrass). The problem is to recall who and where mentioned it in print. This is more difficult than just proving the...
