Comment:

 First impressions:

 1. I find the examples in the doctest all rather simple. It doesn't really
 show how different the `algorithm="sage"` and `algorithm="pari"` can be. I
 would add `Zmod(66)` as example. Also a larger example, say
 `Zmod(lcm([1..40]))` or so...

 2. I would add a `**kwds` argument to `unit_gens()`:
 {{{
 def unit_gens(self, **kwds):
     return self.unit_group(**kwds).gens_values()
 }}}

 3. And a nitpick: I prefer to see `repr(algorithm)` in the error message,
 something like:
 {{{
 raise ValueError('unknown algorithm %r for computing the unit group' %
 algorithm)
 }}}
 This error should also be doctested in a `TESTS::` block.
