A Weil, M Rosenlicht - Number theory for beginners.

Title: Number theory for beginners.
Description: New York: Springer, 1985., 1985. 70 p.. trefwoorden: Number theory. -- In the summer quarter of 1949, I taught a ten-weeks introductory course on number theory at the University of Chicago; it was announced in the catalogue as Alge- bra 251 . What made it possible, in the form which I had planned for it, was the fact that Max Rosenlicht, now of the University of California at Berkeley, was then my assistant. According to his recollection, this was the first and last time, in the his tory of the Chicago department of mathematics, that an assistant worked for his salary . The course consisted of two lectures a week, supplemented by a weekly laboratory period where students were given exercises which they were. asked to solve under Max's supervision and (when necessary) with his help. This idea was borrowed from the Praktikum of German universi- ties. Being alien to the local tradition, it did not work out as well as I had hoped, and student attendance at the problem sessions so on became desultory. v vi Weekly notes were writt Zeer goed.
