Jan 6, 2019 · While antiderivative, primitive, and indefinite integral are synonymous in the United States, other languages seem not to have any equivalent terms for antiderivative. As others …

May 16, 2023 · How would you find a primitive root of a prime number such as 761? How do you pick the primitive roots to test? Randomly? Thanks

Jun 6, 2016 · 2 Primes have not just one primitive root, but many. So you find the first primitive root by taking any number, calculating its powers until the result is 1, and if p = 13 you must …

9 What is a primitive polynomial? I was looking into some random number generation algorithms and 'primitive polynomial' came up a sufficient number of times that I decided to look into it in …

6 days ago · A primitive of $f$ is some other function $g$ such that $g'=f$. The integral in terms of $y$ holds $x$ as a constant and then then integrates in terms of $y$, giving the usual form of …

Sep 1, 2015 · I have read that, but essentially what I want to know is, can a primitive root be defined in a simpler, easier to understand way? For my level of mathematics, some of the …

Sep 18, 2019 · @darijgrinberg yes, sorry, this part was proven in the text I am reading, which then asks you to show there are exactly $\phi (p-1)$ primitive roots. I should have made that clearer.

Oct 13, 2020 · For example, if $\zeta$ is a primitive sixth root of unity, then so is $\zeta^5=\zeta^ {-1}$. Of course $\zeta^3=-1$ is not a primitive sixth root of unity; it is a primitive second root …
