Let G be $underbracemathbb Z_ptimesdotstimes mathbb Z_p_n text times$. Find $A(G)$.
I know that $A(G)cong GL_n(mathbb Z_p)$.
I prove it by taking $varphi$ from $A(G)$ and show that it's like matrix multiplication, than I took $theta$ from $A(G)$ and I show that the composition
of those two is a again matrix multiplication. Than I show that because we take matrix from $A(G)$ then there kernl is trivial so the matrix need to be not reversible.
I don't know if this is good way or not, I know it's good for $mathbb Z_ptimesmathbb Z_p$ but I don't know if it's enough for $mathbb Z_ptimes mathbb Z_ptimesdotstimesmathbb Z_p$ (n times).
If you have other wat please help me, there is a hint to think about vector space $(mathbb Z_p)^n$ but I don't know it could help.

@HenriqueAugustoSouza The tag "finite groups" indicates the other meaning of $mathbb Z_p$ and, in view of the level of the question, I'm inclined to think this is the OP's intention.

Supposing that $mathbbZ_p$ means the $p$-adic integers and you are asking about continuous (additive) group automorphisms, let's first note that any continuous group automorphism of $(mathbbZ_p)^n$ is also a continuous $mathbbZ_p$-module automorphism (as we can see the $mathbbZ_p$ action as limits of $mathbbZ$ actions). So we have:
$$A((mathbbZ_p)^n) = A_mathbbZ_p((mathbbZ_p)^n)$$
But now, $(mathbbZ_p)^n$ is a free $mathbbZ_p$-module of rank $n$, in the sense that it behaves exactly like a vector space over a field (even though $mathbbZ_p$ is not a field). Moreover, fixing a $mathbbZ_p$-basis of $(mathbbZ_p)^n$ (for example, the canonical one), every $mathbbZ_p$-homomorphism of $(mathbbZ_p)^n$ is uniquely determined by it's image on the basis and can be uniquely represented by a matrix. The homomorphism is an automorphism if and only if the matrix is invertible (it's determinant being a unit on $mathbbZ_p$), and the matrix representation preserves automorphism compositions. This is enough to prove that
$$A_mathbbZ_p((mathbbZ_p)^n) simeq textGL_n(mathbbZ_p)$$
The only tricky part here is showing that the matrix is invertible iff it's determinant is a unit (check Theorem 7.9 in Serge Lang's Algebra). But this isn't necessary to prove the isomorphism, it is just a remark.
If $mathbbZ_p$ means the integers modulo $p$, notice that $(mathbbZ_p)^n$ is a vector space over $mathbbZ_p$ of dimension $n$, and that the group automorphisms are also linear transformations (seeing the $mathbbZ_p$ action as a quotient of a $mathbbZ$ action). So $A((mathbbZ_p)^n)$ is equal to the space of all invertible linear transformations os $(mathbbZ_p)^n$ to itself. The rest of the proof is similar to the pro-p case.
thank you for your answer I am sorry the meaning is modulo p
