Aha.  I've just found the "Is there a mathematical formula that will
find prime numbers?" thread that you started over on sci.math.
It looks like at least one of us has been trolled.  I suggest you:

(1) Ignore the formula Gerry gave you.  It's completely impractical as
a way of determining primality, and I'm certain that Gerry knew this.

(2) Learn some elementary number theory before trying to crack RSA.
