g is every prime integer starting with 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13. You plug in 2-100 for each prime, and the numbers not found are prime. You add those numbers to the list and do the same for the next 100 numbers. I cannot do it too fast :( soo, I need a computer to do it. But anways...

 

As I said before, you have no concept of mathematical proof. You can't prove it by doing it for 100 numbers. For 1000. For 10^10^10^10^10.

 

Because no matter how many numbers you test it with, there are still INFINITE numbers that can still apply. What if it breaks with 10^10^10^10^10 + 1?

 

You need to prove it irrevocably for all numbers, or admit that you can't prove it and you're just being a foolish person, or this thread will be closed pretty quickly.

Sounds like a pretty inefficient method of prime-finding to me; that certainly won't win you any awards.

I don't understand what Freeman is saying...

 

Unless it's like Goldbach's Conjecture.
