1. I really enjoyed reading this section and found it very interesting! It was a little disheartening at times when I would go through the examples in the book, and realized that I really needed to know those propositions like the back of my hand because for a large number like on the example on p. 92, it took like 10 steps, which I know is very fast, but it's fast because of all the steps from the propositions, so I just need to make sure that I know those really well and understand them!
2. This section was very interesting and fun to read about! I really enjoyed learning about the Legendre and Jacobi symbols and how they can help us find out whether a is a square mod p or not for a large p. I like seeing examples, and so I'm looking forward to seeing more examples tomorrow in class! Also, if your wife had her baby, then congratulations!! I'll find out tomorrow when I see you! :)
