  Prime (symbol) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In molecular biology, the prime is used to denote the positions of carbon on a ring of deoxyribose or ribose.
Prime can also be used to indicate which position a molecule has attached to, such as “5′-monophosphate”.
Through the early part of the 20th century, the notation “x′” was read “x prime” not because it was an “x” followed by a “prime symbol”, but because it was the first in the series that continued with “x″” (“x second”) and “x‴” (“x third”).

 Character design standards - Symbol
Previous to TrueType fonts these symbols were only present in a PostScript symbol font in ROM on Macintosh printers and as screen bitmaps in the Macintosh font 'suitcase'.
Prime and double prime marks, also called minute and second, are used in the abbreviations for inches, feet, minutes and seconds.
Advance width rule : The advance width of the single prime mark is proportional to the design and the double prime mark is commonly not greater than two times the advance width of the single prime mark.

 APPLIED CRYPTOGRAPHY, SECOND EDITION: Protocols, Algorithms, and Source Code in C:Mathematical Background
The Jacobi symbol, written J(a,n), is a generalization of the Legendre symbol to composite moduli; it is defined for any integer a and any odd integer n.
The Jacobi symbol cannot be used to determine whether a is a quadratic residue mod n (unless n is prime, of course).
The prime factors of p - 1 = 10 are 2 and 5.

 Primality Testing
To be absolutely certain that a given number is prime may take a considerable amount of time due to all the checking that is involved.
It is true that for any odd prime p, as in the above example, half of the non-zero elements are quadratic residues and the other half are quadratic non-residues.
The prime number theorem from number theory, tells you that the probability of selecting a prime at random is about 2/ln n (selecting only odd numbers), so, for an n in the 512-bit range this is about 2/177.

Caretaker Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra yesterday compared his election campaign to a fight to save democracy from rotting and insisted he would not surrender but stand his ground against the "outlaws".
The April 2 election is judgement day if the people want to see the outlaws overcome those who play by the rules, he said.
The country has to play by the rules, otherwise the prime minister will be ousted by outlaws, no matter how many millions of votes he gets, Thaksin said.

 Jacobi's Symbol
Jacobi (in 1846) published a paper in which he defined his own symbol by extending the Legendre symbol (a/p).
For Legendre, p is restricted to being an odd prime - Jacobi allows p to be any odd positive integer.
Rule 8 allows you to "flip" the symbol (a/b) whenever a is odd and 3 ≤ a < b.

 Greek Alphabet (PRIME)
athematics requires a large number of symbols to stand for abstract objects, such as numbers, sets, functions, and spaces, so the use of Greek letters was introduced long ago to provide a collection of useful symbols to supplement the usual Roman letters.
To us these symbols may seem quite foreign, and they are difficult to become familiar with.
In any particular textbook or paper, the way in which these symbols should be interpreted should generally be clear from the context and definitions.
