In mathematics, sexy primes are prime numbers that differ from each other by six.
For example, the numbers 5 and 11 are both sexy primes, because 11 minus 5 is 6.
The term "sexy prime" is a pun stemming from the Latin word for six: sex.
Sexy prime pairs: Sexy prime pairs are groups of two primes that differ by 6. e.g. (5 11), (7 13), (11 17)
See sequences: OEIS:A023201 and OEIS:A046117
Sexy prime triplets: Sexy prime triplets are groups of three primes where each differs from the next by 6. e.g. (5 11 17), (7 13 19), (17 23 29)
See sequences: OEIS:A046118, OEIS:A046119 and OEIS:A046120
Sexy prime quadruplets: Sexy prime quadruplets are groups of four primes where each differs from the next by 6. e.g. (5 11 17 23), (11 17 23 29)
See sequences: OEIS:A023271, OEIS:A046122, OEIS:A046123 and OEIS:A046124
Sexy prime quintuplets: Sexy prime quintuplets are groups of five primes with a common difference of 6. One of the terms must be divisible by 5, because 5 and 6 are relatively prime. Thus, the only possible sexy prime quintuplet is (5 11 17 23 29)
- Task
- For each of pairs, triplets, quadruplets and quintuplets, Find and display the count of each group type of sexy primes less than one million thirty-five (1,000,035).
- Display the last 5 (or all if there are fewer), less than one million thirty-five, of each sexy prime group type.
- Find and display the count of the unsexy primes less than one million thirty-five.
- Find and display the last 10 unsexy primes less than one million thirty-five.
