The Nth Prime Page Nth prime through n=10^12, pi(x) through x=3*10^13, Random primes in same range. Interface to a list of the first 98 million primes (primes less than 2,000,000,000) Weisstein, Eric W. "Prime Number Sequences" .
Graph of the number of primes ending in 1, 3, 7, and 9 up to n for n < 10 000. Another example is the distribution of the last digit of prime numbers. Except for 2 and 5, all prime numbers end in 1, 3, 7, or 9. Dirichlet's theorem states that asymptotically, 25% of all primes end in each of these four digits.
Similarly, when written in the usual decimal system, all prime numbers larger than 5 end in 1, 3, 7, or 9. The numbers that end with other digits are all composite: decimal numbers that end in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 are even, and decimal numbers that end in 0 or 5 are divisible by 5. [11]
Let π(x) be the prime-counting function that gives the number of primes less than or equal to x, for any real number x. The prime number theorem then states that x / log x is a good approximation to π ( x ) , in the sense that the limit of the quotient of the two functions π ( x ) and x / log x as x increases without bound is 1:
In mathematics, Euclid numbers are integers of the form E n = p n # + 1, where p n # is the nth primorial, i.e. the product of the first n prime numbers. They are named after the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid , in connection with Euclid's theorem that there are infinitely many prime numbers.
A list of articles about numbers (not about numerals). Topics include powers of ten, notable integers, prime and cardinal numbers, and the myriad system.
Rowland (2008) proved that this sequence contains only ones and prime numbers. However, it does not contain all the prime numbers, since the terms gcd(n + 1, a n) are always odd and so never equal to 2. 587 is the smallest prime (other than 2) not appearing in the first 10,000 outcomes that are different from 1. Nevertheless, in the same paper ...
For example, the AP-3 {3, 7, 11} does not qualify, because 5 is also a prime. For an integer k ≥ 3, a CPAP-k is k consecutive primes in arithmetic progression. It is conjectured there are arbitrarily long CPAP's. This would imply infinitely many CPAP-k for all k. The middle prime in a CPAP-3 is called a balanced prime.
