  1. calculus - Why is "antiderivative" also known as "primitive ...

    Jan 6, 2019 · While antiderivative, primitive, and indefinite integral are synonymous in the United States, other languages seem not to have any equivalent terms for antiderivative. As others have pointed out …

  2. What are primitive roots modulo n? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    The important fact is that the only numbers $n$ that have primitive roots modulo $n$ are of the form $2^\varepsilon p^m$, where $\varepsilon$ is either $0$ or $1$, $p$ is an odd prime, and $m\ge0$

  3. Finding a primitive root of a prime number

    May 16, 2023 · How would you find a primitive root of a prime number such as 761? How do you pick the primitive roots to test? Randomly? Thanks

  4. logic - To what extent can Primitive Recursion perform wellfounded ...

    Jul 31, 2024 · In fact, primitive recursive functions can perform a huge variety of set-theoretic tasks, which makes primitive wellfounded recursion straightforward... Or at least, it's straightforward to …
