Heinrich Bohne commented on NUMBERS-133:
----------------------------------------
I suppose you mean the modular congruence operators ≡ and ≢? Yes, sure. So
should MathJax also be used for documentation of {{private}} or package-private
elements? Because if that's the case, I'll need to update the documentation in
[PR #66|https://github.com/apache/commons-numbers/pull/66], where I used html
tags instead of MathJax. The reason I didn't use MathJax in {{private}} or
package-private documentation is that, as far as I understand, IDEs generally
don't render the MathJax, so the documentation is unlikely to be read by anyone
in a format where the MathJax will be correctly displayed. But I can convert
the documentation to MathJax, no problem.
> Speed up Primes.nextPrime(int)

> Key: NUMBERS-133
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUMBERS-133
> Project: Commons Numbers
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: primes
> Affects Versions: 1.0
> Reporter: Heinrich Bohne
> Priority: Minor
> Time Spent: 50m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> The method {{Primes.nextPrime(int)}} can use the same algorithm to skip
> multiples of certain primes as {{SmallPrimes.boundedTrialDivision(int, int,
> List<Integer>)}} uses, instead of hard-coding the alternating increment of
> the trial candidate into a loop.
> Also, if the argument of the method is smaller than or equal to the 512th
> prime number, the method can just infer the next higher prime number directly
> from the array {{SmallPrimes.PRIMES}} without performing any calculations.
