Solutions manual for "A computational introduction to number theory and algebra"
If you follow me on Twitter, you've probably known that I've been into " A computational introduction to number theory and algebra " aka NTB for the last two or three months. IMHO, NTB is the best introductory-level book on number theory and algebra, especially for those who want to study these two mathematic subjects from a computer science and cryptography perspective. Moreover, the complete book is freely available online in PDF format under a Creative Common license. Thank you professor Victor Shoup ! Professor Jonathan Katz says it best : This (NTB) is an outstanding and well-written book whose aim is to introduce the reader to a broad range of material — ranging from basic to relatively advanced — without requiring any prior knowledge on the part of the reader other than calculus and mathematical maturity. That the book succeeds at this goal is quite an accomplishment! Besides focusing on the computational aspects of number theory and algebra — e.g., presenting...
