Number Theory: Handwritten Notes
The study of the characteristics of the positive integers (1, 2, 3,…) is called number theory. It is significant because it has numerous uses in coding theory, combinatorics, cryptography, and other branches of mathematics and computer science. Some mathematicians also refer to number theory as the “queen of mathematics” due to its grace and beauty.
