I low-key know if I put my mind to it I could find the laws behind the distribution of primes. Fr ngl I'm that intelligent
six seven prime jake paulngl i am also very intelligent
>>84964755why were we supposed to even care about "prime numbers" anyway?
>>84964755So no one knows what the pattern for prime numbers are yet?Seems like someone just made up what prime numbers are then if there is no pattern and just a characteristic of one.
>>84964755Freshman midwit confidence on display
>>84964860Cryptography relies on them.
>>84964755i don't know shit about maths but i have a certified iq of 134. let me take you on a trip through my mind, so you can see how a "special human" would tackle a problem like this."hmm, so the red dots represent prime numbers. that makes sense. let's look at the picture first. what comes to mind immediately. ah, yes, there are a lot of red balls in the first two lines, and then they considerably decrease. this should lead us to the first law: there are more prime numbers when you start, but later their chance of occurring decreases. curious. there should be a mechanism behind it. i should be able to find it by calculating the speed at which the numbers decrease. maybe a graph. yes, that's it. if I draw a graph with the chance of a prime number occurring, I can just jump to any point on the graph in the future and see exactly where the next prime number is!"and that's it. i might have made some grammar errors since english isn't my first language, but the "tenor" behind my thinking is clear. i have now tackled most of the problem you faced in less than a minute. and that my friend, is how an "advanced person" thinks ;)edit: i can also do the 4chan captcha lightning fast. esp. the ones where you have to find the symbol that doesn't fit!
primes arent really a thing its an arbitrary property mathematicians made up to satisfy their own autism
>>84965521>try to order 3 hamburgers>wendys teenager looks at me like I'm an idiot and tells me prime numbers aren't real
>>84965521>see here anon, i don't actually have 10 fingers>it's just an arbitrary property i made up>if i cut them in h- AUGHHHGUGHGHGHHHGH-in half, you can see I now have 20 fingers>therefore, you see, whole numbers are entirely arbitrary
>>84964860Mathematicians want to keep pretending they have a real job.
>>84964755You're hundreds of years late anon, the Prime number theorem was proven over 200 years ago and analytical number theory has also existed around that long.If you're claiming you can find a function like P(n) where you can map the prime numbers and generate all the prime numbers, I'm pretty sure someone has proven that its impossible to find such a function.
