Hmmm Ms Agbula ! please come back and defend your results, we the students of 'Next Prime Number Please:' are interested in how u managed to dish out 50 Prime numbers like that  Shocked  Huh

Questions like -

How long did it take you to calculate each PM?
Wot method did u use in working them out?
Or did u consult Mr WWW?  Shocked Shocked most obvious answer i sppse, but rest assured u are innocent until found guilty !  Undecided

Re: Next Prime Number Please:

Amigoz, go back to the basis and am sure u'll remember, prime number to be a number that can only be divided by itself and 1.

Well, it did not take me hours to generate the primes for i use it often to generate bio- statitics data on the project  am handling for a firm using this program:

// arbitrary search limit
limit ← 1000000                   

// assume all numbers are prime at first
is_prime(i) ← true, i ∈ [2, limit]

Thus, the next prime is

for n in [2, √limit]:
    if is_prime(n):
        // eliminate multiples of each prime,
        // starting with its square
        // 2n, 3n, …, (n-1)n already eliminated
        // nn, (n+1)n, (n+2)n, … to be eliminated
        is_prime(i) ← false, i ∈ {n², n²+n, n²+2n, …, limit}

for n in [2, limit]:
    if is_prime(n): print n

Thus, the next set of prime are,

2089

2099

2111

2113

2129

2131

2137

2141

2143

2153

2161

2179

2203

2207

2213

2221

2237

2239

2243

2251

2267

2269

2273

2281

2287

2293

2297

2309

2311

2333

Sorry, I would have love to generate another 50 prime's but  I'm running late for the XPERIENCE.

@ Amigoz, i just hope my primes are right. But before the prof comes let me quickly point it out to you that your 2361 is not a prime number. It is divisible by 3.

@ hollandis, sorry 2363 divided by 17 gives 139. Thus 2363 is not a prime number.
