(In reply to
Just a simple pattern by Nishant)
I do not understand
"Now catch this pattern
(2^6+1)/5=13(prime)
(2^14+1)/5=(prime)
(2^22+1)/5=(prime)
(2^30+1)/5=(prime)
......
leaving 2 we have 56 & it is also divisible by 8,but our pattern passes through 54 not through 58 so we conclude X IS NOT A PRIME"
First of all
(2^14+1)/5=3277=29*113
(2^22+1)/5=838,861=397*2113
(2^30+1)/5=214,748,365=5 * 13 * 41 * 61 * 1321
Second, even if they formed a prime pattern, it wouldn't mean there are no primes outside the pattern.
