Post here if you have a prime number of total posts.

That is all.

Wikipedia wrote:263 is an irregular prime, an Eisenstein prime, a long prime, a Chen prime, a Gaussian prime, a happy prime, a sexy prime, a safe prime, and a Higgs prime.


263 FTW (i always thought 263 was sexy)

What if your number is prime before you post, but not after?

Posts in here don't count towards your total number, do they?

If they do make it so that you get a prime number after your post saying you have a prime number.

I forgot about that.

I guess my number has been pretty static for a while... and sadly it's at a nice, round multiple of 10

actually it's more like:
  • 000=0
  • 001=1
  • 010=2
  • 011=3
  • 100=4
  • 101=5
  • 110=6
  • 111=7

But it's the intention that counts :D

Edit:
hi


Oh, great, now we need to discuss whether 1 should be a prime or not ...

One of the next three or four posts I write will be a prime number. I'm mentioning it now so that I don't forget.
