{wiki=Schuette–Nesbitt_formula}
The Schuette–Nesbitt formula is a mathematical formula used in the context of algebraic geometry and number theory, specifically pertaining to the counting of points on algebraic curves over finite fields. It provides a way to compute the number of points on a curve defined over a finite field based on properties of the curve, such as its genus.
