Talk:Fermat number
|
|
It's worth noticing something. If it makes sense to talk of "probabilities" in this area, then the odds are good that Fermat's little theorem will "make" these numbers prime. That's because there is so much scope for any of the testing sequences to come up with 1 at an intermediate stage, in which case they will stick there. 1 is an attractor for the sequences. PML.
True or false??
True or false: It is likely the F_33 will be prime with current knowledge.
