Thats really nice! :surprised:
But unfortunately I dont encourage everyone to post primes less than the minimum requirement. It takes up to much disc space in the forum for every one to do this. :(

Thank you,
Very nice 15k though!
:(

If that was all it was it wouldn't be so bad...

Listing all the digits is not a good idea... :rolleyes:

210885*2^156655-1 is prime and is the 96th prime in the sequence.

joss

210885*2^164059-1 is prime and is the 97th in sequence

Joss

cmon 100 - :)

210885*2^183815-1 is prime and is the 98th in sequence

Joss

210885 195687 is also prime!
and since I miscounted the first ones, this is the 100th in the sequence :grin:

Joss

210885*2^213029-1 is prime! and is the 101st in the sequence

Josh,
How did you pick this 15k? I don't see it listed in the select a 15k thread... :grin:

I'm almost done testing the group of 15k's that I selected, and this one has a much lower #of tests to primes found then the other ones! 16995 is the next closest, with about the same number of tests needed for n < 100,000, but 210885 has 13 more primes in the same range!!! (FYI - 16995 has 90 primes in it's series up to n=282003)

I should have all the numbers complete in a day or two. I'll post em' all to compare when they are done.

The reason I was wondering how you picked it was to see if there is a way for us to try some other 15k's that have the same or better ratio of primes per # of tests.

Thanks!!
