Streszczenie
A number of results are established showing that certain subsets of the integers can be covered by congruences with distinct moduli satisfying various restrictions. For example, the primes, the powers of $2$, the Fibonacci numbers, and the sums of two squares can each be covered by congruences with distinct odd moduli $ \gt 1$.
