Description

How this works: This is based on the fact that every composite number has at least 1 prime factor. So if a number does not go into any primes below it, it itself is prime. The Large Prime numbers are different. WARNING: THE LARGE PRIME NUMBERS ARE VERY LARGE AND MAY/MAY NOT LAG YOUR COMPUTER/CRASH IT! It multiplies the prime numbers and adds 1 to get a larger prime number. Example: 2 + 1 = 3 2x3 = 6 + 1 = 7 2x3x5 = 30 + 1 = 31 2x3x5x7 = 210 + 1 = 211 2x3x5x7x11 = 2310 + 1 = 2311 and so on... Download for it to work correctly.
