    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mersenne_primes...

    Perfect numbers are natural numbers that equal the sum of their positive proper divisors, which are divisors excluding the number itself. So, 6 is a perfect number because the proper divisors of 6 are 1, 2, and 3, and 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. [2] [4] Euclid proved c. 300 BCE that every prime expressed as M p = 2 p − 1 has a corresponding perfect number ...

    Number of ways to write an even number n as the sum of two primes (sequence A002375 in the OEIS) A very crude version of the heuristic probabilistic argument (for the strong form of the Goldbach conjecture) is as follows. The prime number theorem asserts that an integer m selected at random has roughly a ⁠ 1 / ln m ⁠ chance of being prime.
