... More work for Chris: Prover code L374 (id 1147) has 4 primes which are attributed to TPS but not to PG, and so TPS has inched ahead of PG. TPS/PG each have...
Harvey, are you (or somebody else) currently running a search on a repunit in the interval 200,000-300,000? If not, can I reserve this interval? If yes, can I...
David, If I recall, there seemed to be a consensus among folks about projects. But I have forgotten. Was it for projects to share credit like humans (this...
... Sharing seems reasonable to me, and accorded with the largest vote in the poll on this list, last time I looked. That way you don't have to ask anyone what...
The number of primes found by TPS/Prime Grid id divided by 2, but the number of primes found by other projects is divided by 3! Why?? 1 PrimeGrid 479...
All right, it's corrected now, TPS/PG only divided by 2. But I'm against such a sudden change of rules. What's the moral of all this? If you stand out too...
... Hardly sudden, Predrag. This thread began more than 3 months ago: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/primeform/message/8377 but Chris wisely took his time...
Hi, Jean Penne's LLR, whose page is http://primes.utm.edu/bios/page.php?id=431 shows too few primes considering how many there are found with it by TPS and PG....
... Wow! I was only off by about 7000 primes (e.g., omitted only 99.9% of his primes!) Now fixed. I had forgotten a small detail... Tell me if you spot any...

... Willem did most of the work. I just provided the program for sieving. Big congrats to him. I'm surprised that three Woodalls have been found in the past...

Congrats to Harvey Dubner for beating his previous record with the 175109 digit palindrome: http://primes.utm.edu/primes/page.php?id=80980 and for continuing...

My son and I decided to continue Harvey's search for a repunit in the interval n=200,000-300,000. As a first step we ran a trial division of repunits by...
Congrats to projects Twin Prime Search and PrimeGrid for attaining 1000 primes between them (with a few pending submission verifications.) I have not seen this...
You might find something under Skewe's number, it is the smallest integer in which pi(n)<li(n) must fail. It is closely related to Riemann's Hypothesis. ...
Using a combination of bc and pfgw, it looks like the first number is divisible by 17, but the 2nd was is PRP to 3/5/7/137 so it seems this one might be prime....
Update, the first was also PRP-3/5/7/137. I was a short a few of precision (I used 11000 but needed more), and the last 20 or so digits of the "whole" number...

When pfgw says "XXXX is 3-PRP!", does that mean that the number has passed a Fermat test to base 3 or a strong probable primality test to that base? The...
... 3-PRP means base 3 Fermat prp. For example (91 is not SPRP-3): C:\Users\Jens>pfgw -f0 -q91 91 is 3-PRP! (0.0001s+0.0001s) Other prp tests are only made...
