Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersVery interesting prblem: IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #2 2006-02-19 21:46:53
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersWe know that: So 0<Sum<Pi^2/6 IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #3 2006-02-19 21:48:35
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersI'll try to make a program for the sum. IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #4 2006-02-19 21:51:33
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersHere's my program: Code:k = 100000;
ss = 1000;
Print["Initialization Done"];
Do[prt[i] = Prime[i], {i, 1, k}];
Print["Prime Geneneration Done"];
Do[prtsq[i] = prt[i]*prt[i], {i, 1, k}];
Print["Squaring Done"];
Do[thearr[i] = 1/prtsq[i], {i, 1, 100000}];
Print["Factorising Done"];
sum = 0;
Do[sum += N[thearr[i], ss], {i, 1, 100000}];
Print["Sum = ", sum];And here's what I get for the sum: IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #5 2006-02-19 21:52:49
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersIs this sum a irrational number? IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #6 2006-02-21 08:09:29
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersI get everything except the N and the ss usage. Imagine for a moment that even an earthworm may possess a love of self and a love of others. #7 2006-02-23 01:54:48
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersIn Mathematica the "N(number,precise)" function gives the number with precisedigits after the demical point. IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #8 2006-02-23 04:55:10
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersAnd if Prime[] returns 0 if not prime, then why don't you get divide by zero error? Imagine for a moment that even an earthworm may possess a love of self and a love of others. #9 2006-02-23 08:15:05
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersMaybe we could it "Krassi's Number" "The physicists defer only to mathematicians, and the mathematicians defer only to God ..." - Leon M. Lederman #10 2006-03-01 05:15:37
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersFor John, not, PrimeQ[] is for testing whatever a number is prime. IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #11 2006-03-01 05:17:14
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersAnd for rob-ya, it's actually a great idea to call it "Krassi's number". But it's not os scientific as "Geogiev's constant". IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. #12 2006-03-02 06:33:03
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersOkay, now the program makes sense, thanks a lot. Imagine for a moment that even an earthworm may possess a love of self and a love of others. #13 2006-03-03 10:17:52
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersMaybe the solution lies in the infinite pi-notation format of the reimann zeta function Last edited by God (2006-03-03 10:18:20) #14 2006-03-03 23:15:49
Re: Sum of the reciprocals of the squares of the prime numbersWhat is that infinite pi-notation? IPBLE: Increasing Performance By Lowering Expectations. |
