内容説明
This text covers the topic of number theory as applied to a larger historical frame. In addition to livening the text, the historical remarks woven into the text bring out the point that number theory is not a dead art but a living one fed by the efforts of many practitioners. The exercises in the text range in difficulty from the purely mechanical to challenging theoretical questions. The computational exercises aim to develop basic techniques and test understanding of concepts.
