Riesel 603
 

Continuing with the experimentation of the new-bases script, I'm going to have a go with Riesel 603. According to the untested bases thread, it has a conjectured k=11324. (I'm crazy with these large k-values, no?) ;]

Arghh, I'm getting _lots_ of these errors:

[CODE]Error occuring in PFGW at Wed May 12 19:58:24 2010
Expr = 8594*603^361-1
Detected in MAXERR>0.45 (round off check) in prp_using_gwnum
Iteration: 94/3347 ERROR: ROUND OFF 0.46094>0.45
PFGW will automatically rerun the test with -a1
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[/CODE]

They kicked in at ... 4090*603^2467-1 and continued all the way to 11318*603^520-1

I have updated my version of pfgw (I was using whatever was in the CRUS package, which is now woefully out of date), and re-running the script. Is this the sort of error, Gary, that were running into recently?

Advice, comments, platitudes? Iced biscuits?

This is due to the version of PFGW you were using. Most (if not all) of these should go away with 3.3.3/3.3.4. With the version you are using, there is no immediate problem since PFGW detected the error and corrected itself.

Am getting the errors again (running with PFGW 3.3.4 now) for the same k/n pairs.

Since it's re-running with the -a1 switch (again), I'm going to assume that pfgw is taking care of it, but just in case, I've attached the pfgw_err.log for brighter minds if they're interested.

I'll see what we can do, but I'm not too concerned about it.
