The first 10,000 prime numbers, in a table. An online magazine with articles about space, science, and science fiction. With Numbers - Sage Weil Integers and Real Numbers. This is an introduction to Gaussian primes, complex numbers with integers for real and imaginary parts that are divisible by themselves and 1, but no other complex numbers with integer coefficients. This shows calculations of the first few Gaussian primes.
Prime numbers serve as building blocks in the mathematics of whole numbers.
Evenly divisible only by themselves and one, primes are a rich source of speculative ideas that mathematicians often find simple to state but difficult to prove. At about age 16 Gauss apparently conjectured this estimate after studying tables of primes.
