You really only need to save the first factor because you can just look up the factors of anything smaller in your table. As others have told you, this isn't too valuable for large numbers like the Mersenne primes we are looking for, your integer*4 values can only handle 31 bit numbers plus a sign which isn't used. we need to handle numbers with millions of bits. Have fun. _______________________________________________ Prime mailing list [email protected] http://hogranch.com/mailman/listinfo/prime
