There are lot of 35 merit gaps now! This list excludes instances of gaps >35 but which are the same length as a gap with higher merit.

Code:

1	8350	 41.94 	Gapcoin
2	15900	 39.62 	Jacobsen
3	18306	 38.07 	Jacobsen
4	8382	 37.82 	Jacobsen
5	37668	 37.46 	RobSmith
6	44294	 37.29 	RobSmith
7	36760	 37.09 	RobSmith
8	36702	 37.05 	S.Troisi
9	26054	 37.01 	Jacobsen
10	7362	 36.93 	Gapcoin
11	10716	 36.86 	Jacobsen
12	35952	 36.76 	RobSmith
13	13692	 36.59 	Jacobsen
14	26892	 36.42 	Jacobsen

20	189078	 35.53 	M.Jansen
21	40920	 35.51 	RobSmith
22	11924	 35.45 	Jacobsen
23	23548	 35.42 	Jacobsen
24	66520	 35.42 	M.Jansen
25	1476	 35.31 	TOeSilva
26	19474	 35.20 	Jacobsen
27	6570	 35.14 	Jacobsen

Several people dominate the discoverers though. The table below shows the number of discoveries of distinct highest merit prime gaps (i.e. only the highest merit gap at any length included and merit >=30) by discoverer. There are now 2292 such gaps and 28 discoverers. Who is M, I wonder?

Code:

1447	Jacobsen
284	Gapcoin
201	RobSmith
106	Spielaur
71	M.Jansen
37	TOeSilva

One wish still: can you increase the significant number of digits from 2 to 6?

Kind regards

Your wish is my command. Would you mind hand verifying a few of the new merits at?

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pr...er/allgaps.sql

Then verify that they match

It would be nice to double check my code with a second pair of human eyes.

Seth, You might want to do a small database clean up as Michiel J appears twice in the table below of numbers of discoveries by discoverer. Finally, Dana J is under 50k finds!!

All my computers have been packed away turned off for the last 1.5 years. Maybe when Covid-19 settles down and I return to the USA I'll get them going again. I feel bad for not keeping up with the project admin though.

We want you back Dana!

So if you are looking for gaps under 100.000, no need to look for a merit below 10.

Most wanted:

Largest gap known is <10 merit:

Code:

No gap known:

Hi Seth,

I did a quick random sample test on merit and found no differences in merit between the two. The SQL site refreshes more often though and is not that user friendly imho. I prefer the merit.txt list. But you know me by now ;-)

Kind regards
MIchiel

MJansen · 2020-10-01, 19:30

Dana, you are still on top where it counts, you mentioned that you focused on finding 30+ merit gaps, I only recently realized how many you found ! Respect for that, sir!

Kind regards
Michiel

MJansen · 2020-10-01, 19:36

Robert, I think you are right, the Mjansen and M Jansen (M if you separate by space) are gaps found by me. Seth can you change those to M.Jansen?

Kind regards
Michiel
