Monoids are important for category theory though, right? --ComplexZeta 00:01, 13 October 2006 (EDT)

Yes, monoidal categories are reasonably important objects in category theory (or at least that's the sense I have), but I certainly am not prepared to write anything about them :) --JBL 10:02, 13 October 2006 (EDT)

It is not good to say "monoid is a group without inverses". Sometimes we define a group using the definition of monoid. --Puuhikki 14:46, 15 October 2006 (EDT)
