Task

This tutorial is for students studying computer science and math.

Various activities can be done to link what they are doing in Maths with CS, for example:

• As soon as the Fermats' Little Theorem has been covered, primality testing can be discussed.
• Once Legendre Theorem has been covered, RSA can be discussed.
• Another topic for discussion could be Gaussian elimination programs (could be useful for CS students as well).
