A square integer has an odd number of divisors The number of binary trees with leaves is odd A prime has an odd number of representations
2n p = 4n + 1 p = x2 + y2
Shameless plug
To put it bluntly: this book rocks! It somehow manages to combine the fun of a popular book with the intellectual heft of a textbook. Scott Aaronson, UT Austin This is, simply put, the best-written book on the theory of computation I have ever read;
- ne of the best-written mathematical books I
have ever read, period. Cosma Shalizi, Carnegie Mellon
