Mersenne primes
Mersenne primes:
Challenge:
Create code that will list (preferably calculate) all of the Mersenne primes until some limitation is reached. For information on what a Mersenne prime is, go to this link: [[1]]
AppleScript

D
Simplest thing that could possibly work. Using better primality tests will allow for more results to be calculated in a reasonable amount of time. <lang D>import std.bigint; import std.stdio;
bool isPrime(BigInt bi) {
if (bi < 2) return false;
if (bi % 2 == 0) return bi == 2;
if (bi % 3 == 0) return bi == 3;
auto test = BigInt(5);
while (test * test < bi) {
if (bi % test == 0) return false;
test += 2;
if (bi % test == 0) return false;
test += 4;
}
return true;
}
void main() {
auto base = BigInt(2);
for (int pow=1; pow<32; pow++) {
if (isPrime(base-1)) {
writeln("2 ^ ", pow, " - 1");
}
base *= 2;
}
}</lang>
- Output:
2 ^ 2 - 1 2 ^ 3 - 1 2 ^ 5 - 1 2 ^ 7 - 1 2 ^ 13 - 1 2 ^ 17 - 1 2 ^ 19 - 1 2 ^ 31 - 1
Kotlin
This task is similar to the Lucas-Lehmer test task except that you can use whatever method you like to test the primality of the Mersenne numbers. Here, I've chosen to use the JDK's BigInteger.isProbablePrime(certainty) method. The exact algorithm is implementation dependent --- GNU classpath uses only Miller-Rabin, while Oracle JDK uses Miller-Rabin and sometimes adds a Lucas test (this is not the Lucas-Lehmer test).
A 'certainty' parameter of 10 is enough to find the first 20 Mersenne primes but as even this takes about 90 seconds on my modest machine I've not bothered going beyond that. <lang scala>// version 1.2.10
import java.math.BigInteger
const val MAX = 20
val bigOne = BigInteger.ONE val bigTwo = 2.toBigInteger()
/* for checking 'small' primes */ fun isPrime(n: Int): Boolean {
if (n < 2) return false
if (n % 2 == 0) return n == 2
if (n % 3 == 0) return n == 3
var d : Int = 5
while (d * d <= n) {
if (n % d == 0) return false
d += 2
if (n % d == 0) return false
d += 4
}
return true
}
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var count = 0
var p = 2
while (true) {
val m = (bigTwo shl (p - 1)) - bigOne
if (m.isProbablePrime(10)) {
println("2 ^ $p - 1")
if (++count == MAX) break
}
// obtain next prime, p
while(true) {
p = if (p > 2) p + 2 else 3
if (isPrime(p)) break
}
}
}</lang>
- Output:
2 ^ 2 - 1 2 ^ 3 - 1 2 ^ 5 - 1 2 ^ 7 - 1 2 ^ 13 - 1 2 ^ 17 - 1 2 ^ 19 - 1 2 ^ 31 - 1 2 ^ 61 - 1 2 ^ 89 - 1 2 ^ 107 - 1 2 ^ 127 - 1 2 ^ 521 - 1 2 ^ 607 - 1 2 ^ 1279 - 1 2 ^ 2203 - 1 2 ^ 2281 - 1 2 ^ 3217 - 1 2 ^ 4253 - 1 2 ^ 4423 - 1
Perl
Since GIMPS went to the trouble of dedicating thousands of CPU years to finding Mersenne primes, we should be kind enough to use the results. The ntheory module front end does this, so the results up to 43 million is extremely fast (4 seconds), and we can reduce this another 10x by only checking primes. After the GIMPS double-checked mark, a Lucas-Lehmer test is done using code similar to Rosetta Code Lucas-Lehmer in C+GMP.
If this is too contrived, we can use Math::Prime::Util::GMP::is_mersenne_prime instead, which will run the Lucas-Lehmer test on each input. The first 23 Mersenne primes are found in under 15 seconds.
<lang perl>use ntheory qw/forprimes is_mersenne_prime/; forprimes { is_mersenne_prime($_) && say } 1e9;</lang>

Perl 6
We already have a multitude of tasks that demonstrate how to find Mersenne primes; Prime decomposition, Primality by trial division, Trial factoring of a Mersenne number, Lucas-Lehmer test, Miller–Rabin primality_test, etc. that all have Perl 6 entries. I'm not sure what I could add here that would be useful.
Hmmm.
Create code that will list all of the Mersenne primes until some limitation is reached.
It doesn't specify to calculate them, only to list them; why throw away all of the computer millenia of processing power that the GIMPS has invested?
