Excerpt: By Euclid's theorem, there are an infinite number of prime numbers. Subsets of the prime numbers may be generated with various formulas for primes. The first 500 primes are listed below, followed by lists of the first prime numbers of various types in alphabetical order. The following table lists the first 500 primes, 20 consecutive primes in each of the 25 rows. (sequence A000040 in OEIS). The Goldbach conjecture verification project reports that it has computed all primes be...
