Number Theory Study Notes

The sum of the digits in 2^100 is calculated to identify its individual digit contributions to a single value.
A prime number is defined as a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself.
The greatest common divisor (GCD) is the largest integer that divides two or more numbers without leaving a remainder, can be found using the prime factorization method or the Euclidean algorithm.
Among prime numbers, 2 stands out as the only even prime; all other primes are odd.
Division and remainders are important concepts; to find the remainder, one performs modulus division.
Perfect squares result from multiplying an integer by itself, defined as n^2 where n is an integer.
The sum of prime factors involves identifying the unique prime components of a composite number and adding them together.
Understanding false statements about number properties is essential; for instance, 1 is not considered a prime number.
The GCD can vary depending on the pair of numbers; it highlights their shared factors.
Perfect cubes arise when integers are raised to the third power, expressed as n^3 where n is an integer.
