the paragraph:

The way to proceed then is the following: for A and P positive
integers, A: P - 1 , where P is a prime and R is one of its primitive
roots, we get a vector called the indices of the powers of R mod P. I
won't explain these further than to say that they are of great value
in number theory: they are to the powers of the primitive root as
logarithms are to exponentials.


What does that `A: P - 1` mean?  Was it actually printed on that
publications (qq and vector)?
