Chapter 1 The Prime Numbers
What Primes really are:
well you
know the definition of primes from mathematics that it is a number which
is divisible by 1 and itself.what a boring definition,huh? . well
that's not the problem, let's modify it actually it is the smallest
indivisible number that exit on natural numbers set.
some the simple difinition of primes is: It is the smallest Indivisible number that exit on natural numbers.
compare it with atom , something is common.oviously it is Indivisible .
In later Chapter You will see that how primes and Periodic Table are connected especially the atomic weight.
Prime Sequence
2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,..
this are first 15 primes.note that 1 is not in the sequence,why it is
so? we will get this answer in latter chapters.
History of prime numbers
you can go to this link to know the history of primes
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_number#History
you
will find that it was first studied by the pythagoras(500 B C). but the
first proper study was made by the great vedas(1200 BC-700BC). you will
find in later chapter that how they perfectely connect to random
functions.
in next chapter we gone describe the nth term of prime.
