Predict M48...
 

Well, we don't know "M47" is prime, but we have strong evidence for it, so it's time to have a guess at M48. My guess: about 59M, January 2011. :curtisc:

(Mods: Feel free to delete this thread if "M47" turns out not to be prime.)

88M, Nov 2011.

In the neighborhood of 47.3M.

Thought you had already posted a poll on this topic.
My vote was sometime after 2025 (Assuming us or our progeny
ever live to see it)

Not a very conservative guess :smile:

I was referring to a 100M digit prime.
(I voted for after 2025)

Re M48, the "expected" exponent is ~60,000,000
On the old primenet I used to check on the number of LL tests
completed per hour. It was ~10 and [b]falling[/b].
Can someone tip me on the simplest way of monitoring this
on the new version?

Then do your sums.

Well if that's the simplest way I'll give up.
Off for some beer before the shop shuts.
