... It is probable that he revised his notes as the occasion required. His published works represent the final form of his research, and therefore cannot be dated earlier than 1660. Mr. discovered many things in his lifetime. Some things that he did include: -If p is a prime and a is a prime to p then ap-1-1 is divisible by p, that is, ap-1-1=0 (mod p). The proof of this, first given by Euler, was known quite well. A more general theorem is that a0-(n)-1=0 (mod n), where a is prime to n and p(n) is the number of integers less than n and prime to it. -An odd prime number can be expressed as the difference of two square integers in only one way. Fermat's proof is as f ...

(Wilson 66). Wilson also argues that Jefferson knew that his slaves would be better off working for him than freed in a world where they would be treated with contempt and n ...

... through his research, books, and theories of learning. Skinner considered himself to be a radical behaviorist and focused much of his research on the learning process. Through his research Skinner’s main contribution to the field of education would be his behavioral work with the theory of operant conditioning. Skinner himself says that, “When I am asked what I regard as my most important contribution, I always say the original experimental analysis of operant behavior and its subsequent extension to more complex cases.” (Bigge, Shermis. 95) According to Skinner operant conditioning, like all psychological processes, is a product of natural selection and deals w ...
