The 32nd Mersenne Prime
Found by
David Slowinski
In honor of Andrew Wiles' proof of the theorem known as "Fermat's
Last Theorem" stated 350 years ago--but unproven until this week
(February, 1993). [Fermat's thoughts on primes did not fare so
well, however. A prime number is an integer, which is evenly
integer divisible only by itself and 1]
Took 26.562767 minutes to calculate using
