Hi all,
the sum over 1/p for all prime p < x is called the reciprocal prime sum. If you are interested you will find further info on mathworld by searching for "mertens constant".

The first form is correct and the condition Sum (1.) >= 1.
I am trying to learn something about numbers x for which this...

Can you really proof they are prime? Did you check for all the factors?
Why do you mix hex and decimal, btw?
What was the largest prime you found?
And sorry if it bores you, but I still would like...

I use the GMP-Routine to perform the modular power calculation.
This is pretty fast. It takes about 5 to 10 seconds on a Pentium III machine (666 Mhz) for a number which is about 3000 digits long. I...

you are right. Miller Rabin is also such a compositeness test. Okay I guess thats clear, because it is just a variant of the fermat check.
But maybe there is really no faster proof for compositeness...

Hi Cyclamen,
to me the speed of such a test is more relevant than the safety. To proof my kind of numbers are prime I only need to perform a fermat check in combination with another step which...

Hi Cyclamen,
Rabin only works for Mersenne numbers, right?
Oh, I looked at mathworld. It seems also be working for other primes :o)
I guess it is much faster, isn't it?
I will have a look at...

Primalty Test

are there any primalty tests which are faster than the fermat test for large numbers.
The primalty test doesn't need to guarantee that a number is prime, it is already enough if I can...

Are the primalty check methods (which proof that the number...

are there any proofs about how the multiplicative order of numbers
is calculated which include powers of primes?
I put them in three categories:
