:: The phrase "10000 first primes" now isn't quite true, as some (low) primes are ignored to "simplify" things. I find the output (above) less intuitive than a straight/simple vertical list (and with no lower limits on what primes are chosen). And the comment (below) about magnifying the code size and complexity shouldn't to be taken lightly. I see the requirement to use a horizontal format that will be mucking up the task's clarity and brevity. People can read and comprehend a vertical list a lot better than a horizontal list, even though the horizontal list is shorter (as far as vertical spacing goes). I vote '''no''', as readability is more important (in my eyen). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 20:11, 16 September 2016 (UTC) |

::: '''no''' vote recorded. About low primes, we could reword it as "10000 first primes above 5 (or 10)". |

::: Personally, I'm lost in the vertical output; with the table I can easily follow the diagonal. -- [[User:WillNess|WillNess]] ([[User talk:WillNess|talk]]) 20:30, 16 September 2016 (UTC) |
