Hardy N umber theory has been considered since time immemorial to be the very paradigm of pure (some would say useless) mathematics. In fact, the Chinese characters for mathematics are Number Science.'Mathematics is the queen of sciences - and number theory is the queen of mathematics,'according to Carl Friedrich Gauss, the lifelong Wunderkind, who hirnself enjoyed the epithet'Princeps Mathematicorum.'What could be more beautiful than a deep, satisfying relation between whole numbers. {One is almost tempted to call them wholesome numbersJ In fact, it is hard to come up with a more appropriate designation than their learned name: the integers - meaning the'untouched ones'.
