So often we crunchers are reduced to, "data annualized by scientist" in the media but on this talk about prime numbers, Gimps gets a mention.Terence Tao on the Beauty of Prime Numbers - http://www.abc.net.au/tv/fora/stories/2009/10/30/2728974.htm
Terence Tao on the Beauty of Prime Numbers -, 30 October 2009 10:00Former child prodigy Terence Tao has grown up to be one of the world's greatest living mathematicians. At 24 he became the youngest ever person appointed full professor at UCLA, and at the tender age of 31 he was awarded the maths world's highest honour, the Fields medal. Back in his childhood home of Australia, he visited the ANU to deliver this fascinating talk about one of his favourite subjects, prime numbers.
Actually he did:any non Prime can be factored into Primes....for example 110 can be factored to primes of 2*5*11..all primes...add 1 and 111 is only divisible by 1 and 111 a Prime, add another prime. 5 and you get 116(divisible by 2*2*29)...a non prime ...but add a non prime 8 for example you get 119 a Prime!!!...but adding 4 ...a non Prime gives you 115 ...divisible by 5*23 ...a non-Prime ;but adding 2 gives you 113...a primeso a prime +2 is your best shot at the next prime!!!!!( of course every third iteration will be divisible by 3 so that needs to be taken into the formula and every fifth will be divisible by 5 and that as well and the list goes on....)
there is no magic key this formula has been proven beyond any reasonable doubt, as the pattern never repeats ....I'm just running Collatz because I can't find a better home for my ATI GPU!!!!!
I do believe you could go to Poem...I know someone that is recruiting members!!!
