Abstract: The length of the largest cycle consisting of quadratic residues of a positive integer n is denoted by L(n). In this paper, we have obtained a formula for finding L(p), where p is a prime. Also, we attempt to characterize a prime number p in terms of the largest cycle consisting of quadratic residues of p.
