Subproject #3: 700k-800k sequences to 100 digits

[Greebley]

Here's how I get them:

wget "http://factorization.ath.cx/search.php?se=1&aq=276&action=all&text=Text"
grep -F " = " "search.php@se=1&aq=276&action=all&text=Text" > alq_276.elf
grep -i "ended" "search.php@se=1&aq=276&action=all&text=Text" > alq_276.mp
grep -i "Merge" "search.php@se=1&aq=276&action=all&text=Text" >> alq_276.mp
del "search.php@se=1&aq=276&action=all&text=Text"
sleep 3

It finds all the lines with equal on them with grep so it removes some extra stuff and just gives you the series. Does the raw=1 in the example above do that automatically?

In the above case I use the *.mp file to determine whether the sequence is open ended a merge or prime - it stores the 'result' line near the top in text mode. This has html in it.

Yep, basically. See for yourself: http://factorization.ath.cx/search.p...ext=Text&raw=1 What the DB returns with raw=1 and text=1 is almost exactly like the .elf format. The only things that can cause problems are that sometimes the left side will be represented as a formula instead of a simple number (e.g. on 276 index 13, it prints "3^9+1" instead of "19684"), which makes aliqueit unable to read it, (and makes it error out) and that the partial last line can cause some bad behavior in aliqueit.

Greg, you should tweak on your "terminating-ness" prediction software.
At the rates you are testing, you should get one, anyway, any day now. (I guess one out of ~50 of these should terminate.)

I'll take 786688 786720 787024 787158 787284 788304 788448 788868 789594

680094 (which I did illicitly) was a wild ride, closest I've come so far, but no dice.

Don't worry....I started running sequences in November '06 and didn't get a downdriver run until March '07. After coming very close with 48462 (9 digits twice and no merge!). It wasn't until June '09 that I caught a termination. (Of course, I've been doing sequences from >100 digits all along, so there haven't been many chances.....maybe I should do some of these sequences [right after I factor a c124, a c128, and a c139])
