Synopsis :

For courses in Elementary Number Theory for math majors, for mathematics education students, and for Computer Science students.

 

This introductory undergraduate text is designed to entice a wide variety of majors into learning some mathematics, while teaching them to think mathematically at the same time. Starting with nothing more than basic high school algebra, the reader is gradually led from basic algebra to the point of actively performing mathematical research while getting a glimpse of current mathematical frontiers. The writing style is informal and includes many numerical examples, which are analyzed for patterns and used to make conjectures. Emphasis is on the methods used for proving theorems rather than on specific results.
