Elementary Number Theory | 7th Edition

Best book ever in beginner level number theory

This was my first foray into Number Theory, helped me clear RMO and InMO (along with other texts, not alone). Very memorable and full of good problems, examples. Solve all the questions!There's an easier text by Silverman, "A Friendly Introduction to Number Theory", which is also very very good.(this edition is quite bad, the paper quality has significantly degraded, mine old copy is so much better but hey the content is the same so eh it doesn't matter much)

I liked the way it presents the concepts with their historical development. How with the culmination of efforts of many centuries we get the final neat solution.Difficulty of the concepts builds slowly. Exercises are very good . They start from the most basic to advanced in gradual manner. Hence , you won't be discouraged unless you don't the exercises in gradual manner.I fully hope it will be highly beneficial book for you. 💛

The book is excellent. I am preparing for my IOQM exam and my tutor advised me to solve exercises from this book. It starts with the theory, and then goes into lot of problems related to the theory. There are nice historical facts included with chapters which are interesting to read. All and all amazing book for the preparing number theory part of IOQM syllabus.

Best for understanding number and their fact

Great book on number theory.

Very good quality.
