75 citations recorded by the source corpus.
In most text books on number theory Wilson Theorem is proved by applying Lagrange theorem concerning polynomial congruences.Hardy and Wright also give a proof using cuadratic residues. In this article Wilson theorem is derived as a corollary to an algebraic identity.
