3.10 due on October 18

1. I don't quite follow this section. I read over it and got to the end, and I was lost and tried reading it again. The Legendre symbol sort of made sense but then it seemed like the Jacobi symbol was the same symbol but meant something different. I don't kind of lost in those definitions and examples.
2. During the math lecture on primes the Legendre was mentioned. I thought I would gain a bit more understanding, but didn't. I am amazed how people figure this stuff out. Gauss is mentioned in both physics and math; Euler, Fermat. Brains.
