Elements of the Theory of Numbers

Elements of the Theory of Numbers

teaches students how to develop, implement, and test numerical methods for standard mathematical problems.

The authors have created a two-pronged pedagogical approach that integrates analysis and algebra with classical number theory.

Making greater use of the language and concepts in algebra and analysis than is traditionally encountered in introductory courses, this pedagogical approach helps to instill in the minds of the students the idea of the unity of mathematics.

Elements of the Theory of Numbers is a superb summary of classical material as well as allowing the reader to take a look at the exciting role of analysis and algebra in number theory.
