I believe it's a postmodernist construct. You probably wouldn't understand.

From Google:

A prime number (or a prime) is a natural number that has exactly two distinct natural number divisors: 1 and itself. The smallest twenty-five prime numbers (all the prime numbers under 100) are:

2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97

OOOoooooo, guess Novo's prime!

AFAIK (at it again ) no-one has succeeded so far.

Should I start a thread about it?

4, apart from not being a prime, seems unlikely. Since it's an open secret that I'm sincerely looking forward to retiring to France, use your feminine intuition.

What's an algorithm?

(I brought my math teacher coffee and doughnuts everyday until he gave me that one extra percent to pass grade 10 math.)
