Prime numbers whose neighboring pairs are tetraprimes
The following definitions are needed for this task.
Prime numbers whose neighboring pairs are tetraprimes is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.
- Definitions
A tetraprime is a positive integer which is the product of four distinct primes. For example, 1155 is a tetraprime because 1155 = 3 x 5 x 7 x 11.
The neighboring pairs of a prime are the two consecutive numbers immediately preceding or immediately following that prime. For example, (5, 6) and (8, 9) are the neighboring pairs of the prime 7.
- Task
1. Find and show here all primes less than 100,000 whose preceding neighboring pair are both tetraprimes.
2. Find and show here all primes less than 100,000 whose following neighboring pair are both tetraprimes.
3. Of the primes in 1 and 2 above how many have a neighboring pair one of whose members has a prime factor of 7?
4. For the primes in 1 and 2 above, consider the gaps between consecutive primes. What are the minimum, median and maximum gaps?
5. Repeat these calculations for all primes less than 1 million but for 1 and 2 just show the number of primes - don't print them out individually.
If it is difficult for your language to meet all of these requirements, then just do what you reasonably can.
- Stretch
Repeat the calculations for all primes less than 10 million.

Constructs a table of prime factors without using division/modulo operations.
To run this wityth Algol 68G, you will need to specify a large heap size, with e.g.: -heap 256M on the command line.

This follows the lines of the Wren example except that primesieve is used to iterate through the primes rather than sieving for them in advance. As a result, runs quickly - under 0.8 seconds on my machine.
