11.1.3  Standard basis (unit vectors) According to Wikipedia ("Standard basis", 16-Mar-2019, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_basis) "In mathematics, the standard basis (also called natural basis) for a Euclidean space is the set of unit vectors pointing in the direction of the axes of a Cartesian coordinate system.", and ("Unit vector", 16-Mar-2019, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_vector) "In mathematics, a unit vector in a normed vector space is a vector (often a spatial vector) of length 1.". In the following, the term "unit vector" (or more specific "basic unit vector") is used for the (special) unit vectors forming the standard basis of free modules. However, the length of the unit vectors is not considered here, so it is not required to regard normed spaces.

11.1.4  Independent sets and families According to the definition in [Lang] p. 129: "A subset S of a module M is said to be linearly independent (over A) if whenever we have a linear combination ∑x∈Saxx which is equal to 0, then ax = 0 for all x ∈ S", and according to the Definition in [Lang] p. 130: "a familiy {xi}i∈I of elements of M is said to be linearly independent (over A) if whenever we have a linear combination ∑i∈Iaixi = 0, then ai = 0 for all i ∈ I." These definitions correspond to Definitions df-linds 21832 and df-lindf 21831 respectively, where it is claimed that a nonzero summand can be extracted (∑i∈{I\{j}}aixi = -ajxj) and be represented as a linear combination of the remaining elements of the family.

Definition	df-lindf 21831*	An independent family is a family of vectors, no nonzero multiple of which can be expressed as a linear combination of other elements of the family. This is almost, but not quite, the same as a function into an independent set. This is a defined concept because it matters in many cases whether independence is taken at a set or family level. For instance, a number is transcedental iff its nonzero powers are linearly independent. Is 1 transcedental? It has only one nonzero power. We can almost define family independence as a family of unequal elements with independent range, as islindf3 21851, but taking that as primitive would lead to unpleasant corner case behavior with the zero ring. This is equivalent to the common definition of having no nontrivial representations of zero (islindf4 21863) and only one representation for each element of the range (islindf5 21864).
