The Devil's Arithmetic, based on the book by Jane Yolen, is about a girl who is transported from modern-day to 1940 Nazi-occupied Poland. The meaning of the title, comes from the numbers on the clothing that the prisoners in the concentration camp. The characters in the book put meaning to the numbers to help make them a little more personal, to identify better with them. They talk about how the numbers were a part of the Devil's Arithmetic. The Devil, because they knew what was going on, and if they weren't saved, would be killed. Arithmetic because of the numbers.
An arithmetic series is the sum of the terms in an arithmetic progression.
