The Higher Arithmetic: An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers

Buy
'Although this book is not written as a textbook but rather as a work for the general reader, it could certainly be used as a textbook for an undergraduate course in number theory and, in the reviewer's opinion, is far superior for this purpose to any other book in English.' From a review of the first edition in Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society '... the well-known and charming introduction to number theory ... can be recommended both for independent study and as a reference text for a general mathematical audience.' European Maths Society Journal

Now into its Eighth edition, The Higher Arithmetic introduces the classic concepts and theorems of number theory in a way that does not require the reader to have an in-depth knowledge of the theory of numbers The theory of numbers is considered to be the purest branch of pure mathematics and is also one of the most highly active and engaging areas of mathematics today. Since earlier editions, additional material written by J. H. Davenport has been added, on topics such as Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem, computers & number theory, and primality testing. Written to be accessible to the general reader, this classic book is also ideal for undergraduate courses on number theory, and covers all the necessary material clearly and succinctly.

Parallel Genetic Algorithms: Theory and Real World Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)
Parallel Genetic Algorithms: Theory and Real World Applications (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

This book is the result of several years of research trying to better characterize parallel genetic algorithms (pGAs) as a powerful tool for optimization, search, and learning. Readers can learn how to solve complex tasks by reducing their high computational times. Dealing with two scientific fields (parallelism and GAs) is always...

Beginning Android Tablet Application Development (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)

I FIRST STARTED PLAYING WITH THE ANDROID SDK before it was offi cially released as a 1.0 release. Back then, the tools were unpolished, the APIs in the SDK were unstable, and the documentation was sparse. Fast forward two and a half years, Android is now a formidable mobile operating system, with a following no less impressive that the...
