| Description: |
Number theory is the equal of Euclidean geometry - some would say it is superior to Euclidean geometry - as a model of pure, logical, deductive thinking. This title explains number theory in a way that gives deductive reasoning, including algorithms and computations, the central role. |
| Synopsis: |
Although number theorists have sometimes shunned and even disparaged computation in the past, today's applications of number theory to cryptography and computer security demand vast arithmetical computations. These demands have shifted the focus of studies in number theory and have changed attitudes toward computation itself. |
