Summary: | An introduction to the design and analysis of algorithms for problems from number theory, blending theory with practice and coverage of practical aspects of algorithmic implementations, with some 300 exercises and suggested solutions. For beginning graduate students to experts, assuming familiarity with groups, rings, fields, and Galois theory. This volume focuses on problems for which efficient solutions can be found. A forthcoming volume will address problems and applications for which efficient algorithms are not yet known. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
