[QUOTE=T.Rex;409209]Explanation is not a proof. Explanation is only words. Would you mind writing a proof ?[/QUOTE]

Not for someone who admits he knows nothing about the math involved.
It would be meaningless to you. As is most everything else about this subject.

equally so about half the things I phrase mathematically incorrect for you, never stopped you chiming in before.

I have *already* chimed in. Jon Grantham's work established that PRP tests based on Lucas sequences
are a special case of his more general Frobenius PRP tests. However, T.Rex was unwilling to
accept this.

Why should I spend the time writing up 2 to 3 pages of a formal proof for someone who won't understand it?
(neither will you).

His request for a proof was not serious. It was a taunt.
