In this talk we present two functional interpretations of arithmetic: Gödel's functional or `dialectica' interpretation and Kohlenbach's monotone functional interpretation, which is a modification of the first. On the way, we describe weakly extensional Heyting arithmetic in all finite types, Bezem's strong majorizability notion and Howard’s majorizability theorem.
