Is successfully completing P-1 conclusive?

[dambach]

Does anyone know what this message means? Have I found a prime?

completed P-1, B1=580000, B2=11890000, E=12, We4: 2FE579EA, AID: 4

Thanks.

No (but P-1 wasn't going to find one anyway). And neither have you found a factor.

Re Bach, give the B minor Mass a try!

"Damn" has an "n". There's no N minor Mass.

Thanks.

It means that your attempt to find a factor using the P-1 method wasn't successful. This is normal and you still get credit for the attempt.

Either you or someone else will go on to run the full LL test to determine if your number is prime.
