Prime numbers
Tests of primes by Bernard
liste_premier
The program tests a variety of prime numbers developed by Bernard (-h for options). Each option uses a different algorithm.
Program download: version 1.1a Windows (cmd line)
Program download: version 1.0b PC Linux
usage: liste_premier -[option][param] [file]
-v : display program version
-p1 n1 n2 [filer]: prime numbers list after n1 up to the first after n2
-p2 n1 n2 [fiile]: prime number liis from n1 to n2
-p3 n1 n2 max_exponent [file]: Mersenne prime number list (small exponent)
-p4 n1 n2 max_exponent [file]: Mersenne prime number list (bigger exponent)
-p5 n1 [file]: Mersenne prime test (small)
-p6 n1 max_exponent [file]: Mersenne prime test to max_exponent (with undefined)
-p7 n1 [file]: Lucas-Lehmer test for Mersenne primes (if compiled with GNU MP)
-p8 n1 [file]: display M(p) in base 10 (if compiled with GNU MP)
with -p7 option you can really try your luck for the world record!
test_lm_bs
Testing program Mersenne primes developed by Bernard (-h for options). This program uses the Lucas-Lehmer test.
To test whether 2 ** 86243-1 is a Mersenne prime, use the command: test_lm_bs -p 86243.
The exponent must be a prime number to test a number Mersenne prime.
The answer is of the form: MM / DD / YYYY HH: MM: SS version exponent_tested test_delay result.
If result equals P then 2 ** exponent-1 is a Mersenne prime, if not result equal N.
The results are logged in the file lm_bs_historique.txt.
Program download: version 1.4l PC Windows (cmd line)
Program download: version 1.4j PC Linux
usage: test_lm_bs -[v|p|r|t|t1|t2] [p] [file]
-v : display program version
-p p [file] : L.M. test for p (p = prime)
-r p [file] : continue the L.M. test (if stopped) for p
-t p : display the memory allocate for -p p
-t1 p : list of tests M(p) with L.M. test up to p
-t2 p : L.M test up to p (for the first numbers compare with a knows list of M(p))
bs_prime
Program to display numbers, into base 10, for a Mersenne prime numbers. The algorithm is from Slowinski, CRI.
To display numbers from 2**86243-1, use the command: bs_prime 86243.
