Number theory is one of the oldest branches of mathematics that is
primarily concerned with positive integers. While it has long been
studied for its beauty and elegance as a branch of pure
mathematics, it has seen a resurgence in recent years with the
advent of the digital world for its modern applications in both
computer science and cryptography. Number Theory: Step by Step is
an undergraduate-level introduction to number theory that assumes
no prior knowledge, but works to gradually increase the reader's
confidence and ability to tackle more difficult material. The
strength of the text is in its large number of examples and the
step-by-step explanation of each topic as it is introduced to help
aid understanding the abstract mathematics of number theory. It is
compiled in such a way that allows self-study, with explicit
solutions to all the set of problems freely available online via
the companion website. Punctuating the text are short and engaging
historical profiles that add context for the topics covered and
provide a dynamic background for the subject matter.
