Title
A Friendly Introduction To Number Theory,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Starting with nothing more than basic high school algebra, this volume leads readers gradually from basic algebra to the point of actively performing mathematical research while getting a glimpse of current mathematical frontiers. Features an informal writing style and includes many numerical examples. Emphasizes the methods used for proving theorems rather than specific results. Includes a new chapter on bigOh notation and how it is used to describe the growth rate of number theoretic functions and to describe the complexity of algorithms. Provides a new chapter that introduces the theory of continued fractions. Includes a new chapter on ';Continued Fractions, Square Roots and Pells Equation.'; Contains additional historical material, including material on Pells equation and the Chinese Remainder Theorem. A useful reference for mathematics teachers.
