Welcome to the prime wiki!

Prime numbers are something cool if you like mathematics. I started playing with them in 10th grade high school. So, I'm going to start with the basics in case any bright teenagers are reading. If you have a PhD in mathematics, you might want to jump ahead:

  1. Give me the program to find prime numbers.
  2. Tell me about the code.Tell me about the code. I want to use/improve/hack it.
  3. Lets do some art or other fun things with primes.
  4. What other cool work is out there (References and links).

Still here? Good. Lets start with the basics. This is a good video on what prime numbers and followed by an explanation of the Sieve of Eratosthenes. It is the algorithm used in this code:
