The primes have been a focal point for investigations of numbers for more than two millennia.
Mathematica implements state-of-the-art algorithms for handling both primes and the advanced mathematics that has grown up around their study. Use
Prime to quickly find the billionth prime, or
Zeta to get empirical evidence related to the Riemann hypothesis.
Prime — the
nth prime number
NextPrime — next, previous, etc. prime
RandomPrime — pick a random prime
PrimePi — the number of primes up to
n
Zeta — Riemann zeta function
ZetaZero — zeros of the zeta function
PrimeQ — test if a number is prime
CoprimeQ — test if numbers are coprime
Primes — the domain of primes
Reduce — reduce equations over the primes
FindInstance — find Diophantine solutions over the primes
FullSimplify — simplify assuming numbers are prime
FactorInteger — find the factors of an integer
