What am I doing? Someone tell me if this is something that exists already because I am just screwing around here wasting my time and this interests me for fuck knows why and if some math dude already has a name for this shit I would just like to go simply look at it instead of writing all this junk down for fun.

whats a prime number and why are they important?

100% serious question. im a chem major
>>
>>7670294
regardless of being a chem major, you should know what a prime number is unless you didn't listen at all through grades 1-12 in math class.
>>
>>7670294
but to answer your question, a whole number greater than 1 that is only divisible by 1 and itself. Has no other factors.

Google is a beautiful thing, I'm sure you know that as a chem major.

>>7670301
im sorry my man but prime numbers were not heavily emphasized all throughout 1-12th grade. seriously i honestly dont remember this
>>
>>7670309
i mean, its fine. You know now. But its not like you will use them or anything so not really a big deal...

Also they use large random prime numbers to encrypt credit card numbers... Well, I think they still do that.

how much times did you rewrite these notes until you were satisfied enough to post anonymously?
>>
originally did this on a white board, rewrote at home on a paper to post it online anonymously
>>
>>7670317
one more question: is there some sort of formula or rule you can apply to determine if a number is a prime number? i know i know you just said the definition but for example, off the top of my head, something like 5061

so i dont have to sit autistically trying to find factors
>>
>>7670325
maybe dude, I don't know. Good question, probably could use that knowledge myself.

clever, but 1 isn't prime

from the left,

first one will approach 1/(n*ln(10))
second one will be converge to 10
[math] { \frac { N } { \ln(N) } } ^ { \frac { 1 } {\log(N) } } = \frac { 10^{ \frac { \log(N) } { \log(N) } } } { \ln(N) ^ { \frac { \log(e) } { \ln(N) } } } = \frac { 10 } { \left( { \ln(N) } ^ { \frac { 1 } { \ln(N) } } \right) ^ { \log(e) } } → 10/1^ { \log(e) }=10 [/math]
third is 0 since it converges

>>7670289
When you write the nth root put the "n" above the trench

ex: ∛ ∜ [math] \sqrt [ n ] { x } [/math]
