Re: Prime numbers


I always tell my students to look for the pattern. I believe whole
heartedly that theres a definite ordering to the prime numbers. >

Ordering of the prime numbers?
The prime numbers are produced by the algorithm of the Eratosthenes
Sieve. That algorithm is equivalent to a Pseudorandom Generator.
It is a Chaos generator. Each pass for deleting the multiples of a
given
prime produces new primes with different gaps that have a devastating
efect
in the distant numbers. Example: Between 1322 and 1422 there are
only 7 primes while between 1423 and 1523 there are 18.
Moreover the quantity of primes by equal intervals follows a
statistical
distribution known as the Gauss Distribution.
