Root test

In mathematics, the root test is a criterion for the convergence (a convergence test) of an infinite series. It depends on the quantity where are the terms of the series, and states that the series converges absolutely if this quantity is less than one, but diverges if it is greater than one. It is particularly useful in connection with power series. (Wikipedia).

Primitive Roots Method 2

This video describes what a primitive roots is. Also, how to test if a number (alpha) is primitive for a low/small modulus. Also note that there is a more efficient way of testing for a primitive root (if p-1 is easily factorable), which is discussed in part 2: https://www.youtube.com/wat
