Universal Algebra
P-adic numbers are a system of numbers used in number theory, which extends the concept of the integers and rational numbers by introducing a notion of distance based on a prime number p. This unique distance allows for the analysis of convergence and limits in a way that differs from real numbers, facilitating the study of polynomial functions and their roots in relation to completeness.
congrats on reading the definition of p-adic numbers. now let's actually learn it.
