    The number d will contain a certain mumber r1 of factors of 2, a number r2 of factors of 3,a number r3 of factors of 5 etc., so one can then start with computing 2^(2^s1) mod n and then taking this this to the power 3^s2, and then 5^s3, etc. etc. for

  • Prime and Nonprime Numbers : Multiplication

    When a large integer "N" raised to a very large power "M", the result is the product of a series (M) of N's, and therefore, is not a prime at all. There are infinitely many natural numbers that are not prime.
