Prime Search!You could discover one of
the most coveted finds in all of Mathematics - a new Mersenne prime number.
We've found five already. Join in on this fun, yet
serious research project. All you need is a personal computer, patience, and a
lot of luck.
In addition to the joy of making a mathematical
discovery, you might win some cash. The Electronic
Frontier Foundation is offering a $100,000 award to the first person or
group to discover a ten million-digit prime number! See how GIMPS will distribute this award if we are
