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.
Pseudorandom generator.-
"Sequences generated in a deterministic way, as multiplying 10-digit
numbers
and extracting the ten middle digits, are called pseudo-random
sequences."

"Une des hypotheses les plus interesantes auxquelles conduisent les
etudes statistiques peut etre appelee l' hypothese du hasard qui
conduisse
a considerer la distribution des nombres premiers comme une
distribution
Binomial que a l' infinie se confond avec une Laplce-Gauss."
