Primal algebra

Summary

A primal algebra is a finite algebra in which every finitary operation on its universe is a term operation. Equivalently, its basic operations form a functionally complete set. The two-element Boolean algebra and the rings ℤp\Z_p for a prime pp are primal. By Foster's theorem, the variety generated by a primal algebra looks just like the variety of Boolean algebras.
