Turtle graphics are often associated with the Logo programming language. [2] Seymour Papert added support for turtle graphics to Logo in the late 1960s to support his version of the turtle robot, a simple robot controlled from the user's workstation that is designed to carry out the drawing functions assigned to it using a small retractable pen set into or attached to the robot's body.
A prime divides if and only if p is congruent to ±1 modulo 5, and p divides + if and only if it is congruent to ±2 modulo 5. (For p = 5, F 5 = 5 so 5 divides F 5) . Fibonacci numbers that have a prime index p do not share any common divisors greater than 1 with the preceding Fibonacci numbers, due to the identity: [6]
Examining divisibility by 5 as well, remainders upon division by 15 repeat with pattern 1, 11, 14, 10, 14, 11, 1, 14, 5, 4, 11, 11, 4, 5, 14 for the first polynomial, and with pattern 5, 0, 3, 14, 3, 0, 5, 3, 9, 8, 0, 0, 8, 9, 3 for the second, implying that only three out of 15 values in the second sequence are potentially prime (being ...
f p+1 ≡ 0 (mod p), where f k is the k-th Fibonacci number. The first condition is the Fermat primality test using base 2. In general, if p ≡ a (mod x 2 +4), where a is a quadratic non-residue (mod x 2 +4) then p should be prime if the following conditions hold: 2 p−1 ≡ 1 (mod p), f(1) p+1 ≡ 0 (mod p), f(x) k is the k-th Fibonacci ...
The first working Logo turtle robot was created in 1969. A display turtle preceded the physical floor turtle. Modern Logo has not changed very much from the basic concepts predating the first turtle. The first turtle was a tethered floor roamer, not radio-controlled or wireless. At BBN Paul Wexelblat developed a turtle named Irving that had ...
Because the set of primes is a computably enumerable set, by Matiyasevich's theorem, it can be obtained from a system of Diophantine equations. Jones et al. (1976) found an explicit set of 14 Diophantine equations in 26 variables, such that a given number k + 2 is prime if and only if that system has a solution in nonnegative integers: [7]
Graph showing ratio of the prime-counting function π(x) to two of its approximations, x / log x and Li(x). As x increases (note x axis is logarithmic), both ratios tend towards 1. The ratio for x / log x converges from above very slowly, while the ratio for Li(x) converges more quickly from below.
Certain finite simple groups can be recognized by the degrees of the vertices in their prime graphs. [3] The connected components of a prime graph have diameter at most five, and at most three for solvable groups. [4] When a prime graph is a tree, it has at most eight vertices, and at most four for solvable groups. [5]
