Synopsis
Number theory is used by mathematicians, computer scientists, and programmers to solve real-world programming problems. In turn, computers are used to solve problems in number theory. Until now, the literature has provided far more theory than practice, which means the field is poorly understood and underutilized. This book provides practical guidelines and source code for everyday applications.

Solving Diophantine Equations. Trial-and-Error Solution Strategies. Algorithm Design. Multiple Precision Arithmetic.
