Abstract

Chapter 6 Exercises Exercise 1 Captain's Age The aim of this exercise is to find the very secret age of the Captain. The only information we know is that one year ago, his age was a multiple of 3, in 2 years it will be a multiple of 5, and in 4 years it will be a multiple of 7. Deduce the Captain's age. Hint: Maybe the Captain is Chinese ... D Solution on page 142 Exercise 2 Roots in Z;, Compute the 7th root of 23 in Z& by using the Extended Euclid Algorithm and the Square-and-Multiply Algorithm. D Solution on page 142 Exercise 3 *When is Zi Cyclic? xpp be its decomposition Let n > 1 be an integer, and let n = py' x into prime numbers. We assume that for any integers i # j, we have pi # pj, that pi is prime, and that ai > 0 for 1 5 i 5 r. We consider the multiplicative group Z:. The purpose of this exercise is to find a 136 EXERCISE BOOK necessary and sufficient condition on n such that ZE is a cyclic group, i.e., such that Z; has a generator. 1 In
