Euler's Theorem and Fermat's Little Theorem
Channel: Andrew Misseldine

In this video, we introduce Euler's totient function and present Euler's Theorem and Fermat's Little Theorem from Number Theory and prove them as corollaries of Lagrange's Theorem of finite groups. We present how these theorems can be used to create simple primality tests.
