Topic: Titanic prime


  
  The Largest Known Primes
For example, the prime divisors of 10 are 2 and 5; and the first six primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13.
The problem of distinguishing prime numbers from composite numbers and of resolving the latter into their prime factors is known to be one of the most important and useful in arithmetic.
Because the way the largest numbers N are proven prime is based on the factorizations of either N+1 or N-1, and for Mersennes the factorization of N+1 is as trivial as possible (a power of two).

  RMS TITANIC, INC
Titanic was delivered to the White Star Line in early April, and on 10 April 1912, the Titanic left Southampton, England, for her first trip to New York City.
After the Titanic sank, the story of her loss was turned into a modern fable and the original description "practically unsinkable" became just "unsinkable" in order to sharpen the moral of the story.
The Titanic was four times larger than the largest legal classification considered under the eighteen year old rules and so by law was not required to carry more than sixteen lifeboats, regardless of the actual number of people onboard.

 Saga of the Titanic - by Jim Manniso
Titanic’s safety features, as well as her awe-inspiring presence, made it all the more unbelievable when she sank.
Titanic had just over 700 survivors and it was because of their testimonies that the events on April 14 and 15 in 1912 could be pieced together.
Titanic was built as a symbol of materialism and wealth; like man was trying to create heaven on earth by exploiting his extravagance.

 Puzzle 144.  The Longford Prime Numbers
Then to obtain a Titanic one he basically concatenated "at hand" several of these up to a convenient (titanic) length; to this titanic constant number he appended many odd LN numbers -one at a time - until he got a PRP.
As for the prime sent, I simply concatenated found LN's, but I selected the LN's to concatenate so that there would be a Type 2 with each concatenation.
Note the second concatenation is not as nice as the first, since on the second one, it put 1.11.1 which is not a "pleasant" pattern (although it is 100% legal).

 Titanic prime - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Titanic prime is a term coined by Samuel Yates in the 1980s, denoting a prime number of at least 1000 decimal digits.
Few such primes were known then, but the required size is trivial for modern computers.
The first discovered titanic primes were the Mersenne primes 2

It's a prime number, meaning that it is evenly divisible only by itself and 1 (see Prime Talent, July 6, 1998).
Cosgrove didn't immediately connect his newly found prime with the millennium, partly because he is one of those who insist that the next millennium starts on Jan. 1, 2001.
John Cosgrove's account of the discovery of a 2000-digit prime is available in the archives of the number theory discussion group at http://listserv.nodak.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A2=ind9901andL=nmbrthryandF=andS=andP=54.

 Titanic Historical Society, Inc. - "Distress Signals"
The Titanic never fired any "signals of distress." True, she fired eight rockets in a little over an hour, but these were eight individual rockets -- not distress rockets.
For the Titanic to fire distress signals using the rockets supplied her, the crew should have fired its socket signals at one minute intervals.
The failure on the part of the Titanic to fire its socket signals at one minute intervals is the reason that there are questions and uncertainty as to what the rockets seen near the horizon meant.

A 2000 digit prime number was discovered recently by the head of mathematics at a Dublin College.
He was actually on the lookout for a prime with at least a thousand digits - a "titanic" prime - and when he got to number 325 in the list chanced upon the millennium prime.
It is not the largest prime ever found (that has over 2 million digits in it) and it will not be the last - Euclid proved in the third century BC that there are an infinite number of primes.

Coast Guard Ice Patrol: www.uscg.mil/lantarea/iip/home.html - The sinking of the RMS TITANIC on April 15, 1912, was the prime impetus for the establishment of the International Ice Patrol.
In 1986 a bronze plaque created by the Titanic Historical Society was placed on the stern of Titanic by the manned submersible Alvin on Robert D. Ballard’s second expedition to her grave.
The plaque was the first tangible remembrance placed on the wreck and originally was to be left on her nobly preserved bow, but the majority who died had gathered on her stern, and that last, final haven was chosen.

The 1996 Hallmark miniseries of TITANIC was unfortunate in that it ended up being largely overshadowed by James Cameron's 1997 big-screen blockbuster (by the time the miniseries was aired in the UK and Australia, James Cameron's version had well and truly exploded onto the scene).
No version of TITANIC would be complete without the ebullient and "unsinkable" Molly Brown (Marilu Henner plays her with enough spirit and spunk to make Debbie Reynolds proud and Kathy Bates pale).
If you're fascinated by Titanic like me, then this movie is worth checking out but if you also want a great movie experience that makes you feel as if you were on the boat the night of the sinking, then James Cameron's version is the one to go for.

A prime k-tuplet is a sequence of k consecutive prime numbers such that in some sense the difference between the first and the last is as small as possible.
A prime k-tuplet is then defined as a sequence of consecutive primes {p1, p2,..., pk}such that for every prime q, not all the residues modulo q are represented by p1, p2,..., pk, and pk - p1 = s(k).

 Review | The Titanic Murders
The videotape version of American director James Cameron's Oscar-winning 1997 film, Titanic, depicting the ship's maiden voyage in special-effects glory, is currently one of the hottest-selling commodities.
She, in turn, recounts how her mother May (who'd escaped the Titanic, resigning her husband -- and a number of his unpublished Thinking Machine stories -- to a watery grave) once alluded to killings aboard the ship shortly after its final land-stop at southern Ireland on April 11, 1912.
But Futrelle hasn't long to appreciate such excesses before he is occupied with murder, the victim being a weaselish flguard named John Bertram Crafton, who had approached several passengers with exaggeratedly negative "facts" from their pasts and promised to keep them quiet -- for a fee.
