Book recommendation
I've been away for quite a while, and now I can't find the book forum.

The course outline is: - (commutative) rings, fields, Z, Q, R, C, Z[i], polynomial rings, properties of Z. - division algorithm, Euclidean algorithm, primes, congruences, Fermat & Euler theorems, unique factorization, linear and other congruence equations, Chinese Remainder Theorem - sets, well-ordering, functions, equivalence relations, proof by induction, cardinality, existence of transcendentals - finite fields, fundamental theorem of algebra, complex numbers - polynomial rings, rational roots, irreducible polynomials, unique factorization Thank you. |
