- This is posted in correction of my first posting (#616) regarding
- prime number theory. I apologize for my mistatement of the problem,
- but here is the correct statement of the problem:
-
- What is the LARGEST set of prime numbers with the following criteria:
- 1) No Prime in this set can be greater than 1 million;
- 2) No sum nor difference between any two primes in this set
- can equal any other sum or difference between any other
- combinations of primes in this set?
-
- And how can I generate these numbers?
-
- I would appreciate any references or direction that might be given to
- me toward this problem. Thanx again to any who might reply to this
- posting.
-
- Sincerely,
-
