The Canon arithmeticus is a set of mathematical tables of indices and powers with respect to primitive roots for prime powers less than 1000, originally published by Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi (1839), with introductory text in Latin. The tables were at one time used for arithmetical calculations modulo prime powers, though like many mathematical tables, they have now been replaced by digital computers.
