This is a list of articles about prime numbers.A prime number (or prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. By Euclid's theorem, there are an infinite number of prime numbers.
A prime number (or a prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that is not a product of two smaller natural numbers. A natural number greater than 1 that is not prime is called a composite number. For example, 5 is prime because the only ways of writing it as a product, 1 × 5 or 5 × 1, involve 5 itself. However, 4 is composite because it is a ...
The tables contain the prime factorization of the natural numbers from 1 to 1000. When n is a prime number, the prime factorization is just n itself, written in bold below. The number 1 is called a unit. It has no prime factors and is neither prime nor composite.
A simple formula is. for positive integer , where is the floor function, which rounds down to the nearest integer. By Wilson's theorem, is prime if and only if . Thus, when is prime, the first factor in the product becomes one, and the formula produces the prime number . But when is not prime, the first factor becomes zero and the formula ...
The PrimePages is a website about prime numbers originally created by Chris Caldwell at the University of Tennessee at Martin [2] who maintained it from 1994 to 2023. The site maintains the list of the "5,000 largest known primes", selected smaller primes of special forms, and many "top twenty" lists for primes of various forms.

The palindromic prime 10 150006 + 7 426 247 × 10 75 000 + 1 is a 10-happy prime with 150 007 digits because the many 0s do not contribute to the sum of squared digits, and 1 2 + 7 2 + 4 2 + 2 2 + 6 2 + 2 2 + 4 2 + 7 2 + 1 2 = 176, which is a 10-happy number. Paul Jobling discovered the prime in 2005. [10] As of 2010, the largest known 10-happy ...
