Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics concerned with the properties and relationships of integers, including topics like prime numbers, divisibility, and modular arithmetic. It has deep theoretical roots dating back to ancient mathematics and modern practical applications in cryptography and computer security. Mathematicians and computer scientists study it both for its intellectual elegance and its real-world uses in encryption algorithms.
