Numbers theory

Number theory is a branch of mathematics that studies the properties and relationships of numbers, especially integers. It explores patterns, divisibility, prime numbers, and how numbers relate to each other through operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Number theorists seek to understand fundamental questions—such as what makes a number prime or how numbers can be broken down into prime factors—and this knowledge has practical applications in coding, cryptography, and computer science. Essentially, it's the study of the building blocks of all numbers and their interconnected structures.
