I would recommend a good number theory book, such as Nathanson "Elementary Number Theory", Weil "Number Theory for Beginners" or Hardy "An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers", since they contain authoritative presentation of the topic.
 


Yes, there are several resources available online that provide a good introduction to congruences. One website that I would recommend is MathIsFun.com. They have a section specifically dedicated to congruences, which includes explanations, examples, and interactive activities to help you understand the concept better. Additionally, you can also check out the PDF file "Introduction to Congruence" by the University of Texas at Austin, which provides a comprehensive introduction to congruences and their applications. I hope these resources will be helpful to you in understanding congruences.
