In part it is the dramatic increase in computer power and sophistication that has influenced some of the questions being studied by number theorists, giving rise to a new branch of the subject, called “computational number theory.”
This book presumes almost no background in algebra or number theory. Its purpose is to introduce the reader to arithmetic topics, both ancient and very modern, which have been at the center of interest in applications, especially in cryptography.
