2. Prime number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_number

   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 ...

3. Happy number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_number

   A -happy prime is a number that is both -happy and prime. Unlike happy numbers, rearranging the digits of a -happy prime will not necessarily create another happy prime. For instance, while 19 is a 10-happy prime, 91 = 13 × 7 is not prime (but is still 10-happy). All prime numbers are 2-happy and 4-happy primes, as base 2 and base 4 are happy ...

4. List of prime numbers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prime_numbers

   By Euclid's theorem, there are an infinite number of prime numbers. Subsets of the prime numbers may be generated with various formulas for primes. The first 1000 primes are listed below, followed by lists of notable types of prime numbers in alphabetical order, giving their respective first terms. 1 is neither prime nor composite.

5. Formula for primes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_for_primes

   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 ...

6. Fundamental theorem of arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_theorem_of...

   The fundamental theorem can be derived from Book VII, propositions 30, 31 and 32, and Book IX, proposition 14 of Euclid 's Elements . If two numbers by multiplying one another make some number, and any prime number measure the product, it will also measure one of the original numbers. — Euclid, Elements Book VII, Proposition 30.

7. Sieve of Eratosthenes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_of_Eratosthenes

   In mathematics, the sieve of Eratosthenes is an ancient algorithm for finding all prime numbers up to any given limit. It does so by iteratively marking as composite (i.e., not prime) the multiples of each prime, starting with the first prime number, 2. The multiples of a given prime are generated as a sequence of numbers starting from that ...
