Sections 6.4.1 and 6.4.2

In this section it talked about finding linear dependencies, and does that just mean where they are congruent to 0 mod whatever the current mod is? Or what exactly does that mean?  I guess the whole concept of a factor base is still kinda of fuzzy for me.

And these theoretical methods we covered in class, so i feel pretty comfortable with them at this point.  Your lectures really make the material that we read make a lot more sense.  Im not sure what exactly it is but thank you for putting in the time to make everything come together.
