The Riemann zeta function has many applications, but I wanted to focus on approximating its outputs. I had read a quite neat proof that...

While creating my fourth version of a Prime Number Finder, I didn't start by using massive numbers under which to find primes. I started...

Programming prime-finders is fun for me because it is a constant test to improve. First I divided a potential prime by all of its factors...
