Adding 4 hours to 9 o'clock gives 1 o'clock, since 13 is congruent to 1 modulo 12. In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus. The modern approach to modular arithmetic was developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in his book Disquisitiones ...
Let p be an odd prime. The quadratic excess E (p) is the number of quadratic residues on the range (0, p /2) minus the number in the range (p /2, p) (sequence A178153 in the OEIS). For p congruent to 1 mod 4, the excess is zero, since −1 is a quadratic residue and the residues are symmetric under r ↔ p − r.
The history of mathematics deals with the origin of discoveries in mathematics and the mathematical methods and notation of the past. Before the modern age and the worldwide spread of knowledge, written examples of new mathematical developments have come to light only in a few locales. From 3000 BC the Mesopotamian states of Sumer, Akkad and ...
Topics introduced in the New Math include set theory, modular arithmetic, algebraic inequalities, bases other than 10, matrices, symbolic logic, Boolean algebra, and abstract algebra. [2] All of the New Math projects emphasized some form of discovery learning. [3] Students worked in groups to invent theories about problems posed in the textbooks.

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton named rookie Bo Nix as the team’s starting quarterback for the upcoming season on Wednesday.
Nineteen-year-old Ezra Frech led a stadium-wide slow clap on Tuesday during his marquee event, the high jump. His record 1.94-meter jump was met by roaring applause. With tears in his eyes, he ...
Tutte's conjectures: every bridgeless graph has a nowhere-zero 5-flow [131] every Petersen - minor -free bridgeless graph has a nowhere-zero 4-flow [132] Woodall's conjecture that the minimum number of edges in a dicut of a directed graph is equal to the maximum number of disjoint dijoins.
