r""" An example of a monoid: the free monoid
This class illustrates a minimal implementation of a monoid. For a full featured implementation of free monoids, see :func:`FreeMonoid`.
EXAMPLES::
sage: S = Monoids().example(); S An example of a monoid: the free monoid generated by ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd')
sage: S.category() Category of monoids
This is the free semigroup generated by::
sage: S.semigroup_generators() Family ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd')
with product rule given by concatenation of words::
sage: S('dab') * S('acb') 'dabacb'
and unit given by the empty word::
sage: S.one() ''
We conclude by running systematic tests on this monoid::
sage: TestSuite(S).run(verbose = True) running ._test_an_element() . . . pass running ._test_associativity() . . . pass running ._test_cardinality() . . . pass running ._test_category() . . . pass running ._test_elements() . . . Running the test suite of self.an_element() running ._test_category() . . . pass running ._test_eq() . . . pass running ._test_new() . . . pass running ._test_not_implemented_methods() . . . pass running ._test_pickling() . . . pass pass running ._test_elements_eq_reflexive() . . . pass running ._test_elements_eq_symmetric() . . . pass running ._test_elements_eq_transitive() . . . pass running ._test_elements_neq() . . . pass running ._test_eq() . . . pass running ._test_new() . . . pass running ._test_not_implemented_methods() . . . pass running ._test_one() . . . pass running ._test_pickling() . . . pass running ._test_prod() . . . pass running ._test_some_elements() . . . pass """
