Let $p$ be a prime number and let $n\geq 1$ be coprime to $p$. Consider the groups $$G:=(\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z)^\times\ni p,\quad H:=\langle p\rangle\leq G.$$ We may now form the quotient $G/H$, giving us say $k$ cosets. It is often desirable to have a system of representatives $g_1,\dots,g_k$ of ...
