L.S., Time to play a little with the stats again. I made a graph of the amount of participating machines based on the following new definition:
Blue line: a pc is participating on the day it checked in a result and all days in between the first and last time it checked in a result if it checked in more than one result. A result can either be a LL test or a factor found. Purple line: a pc is participating if it checked in at least one result, the period is extended up to the last day it reported progress on a new assignment to the server. The image can be viewed at: http://home.planet.nl/~tha/primenetnumbers.gif (day 291 is the day of the last server synchronization, day 680 is this Saturday, the stats are based on cleared.txt and status.txt) The program to monitor progress on factoring work done has had a little update. The graph of this weekend can be found at: http://home.planet.nl/~tha/overview20011209.gif The program to create this graphic now shows an empty screen immediately when started, shows the lower and upper border after the first pass and all elements when processing is completed. This makes it look more responsive than the previous version. The Delphi sourcecode in the zipfile can be trown away if not wanted. To use the program run the 'decomp -n lowerlimit upperlimit' utility first. The program can be found at: http://home.planet.nl/~tha/overview.zip YotN, Henk Stokhorst _________________________________________________________________________ Unsubscribe & list info -- http://www.ndatech.com/mersenne/signup.htm Mersenne Prime FAQ -- http://www.tasam.com/~lrwiman/FAQ-mers
