prime number patterns Anonymous 2016-01-20 00:52:29 Post No. 7796649 [Report]

hey /sci/ -- my friend's kid (11th grade) is doing a science fair project on various prime finding algorithms -- are any of you aware of "patterns" in the distribution of primes? the kid tells me that there are but i think it might be bullshit.

>pic unrelated
also if you have anything that you think the kid should know to better his project please tell - i'd like to be able to help him

There are some fascinating patterns in the distribution of primes, but I'm not doing your homework for you.

Prime number theorem is the only one I'm aware of.

can't you just google patterns in prime numbers?
