Neighbour primes
- Task
Find and show primes p such that p*q+2 is prime, where q is next prime after p and p < 500
FreeBASIC
<lang freebasic>#include "isprime.bas"
dim as uinteger q
print "p q pq+2" print "--------------------------------" for p as uinteger = 2 to 499
if not isprime(p) then continue for q = p + 1 while not isprime(q) q+=1 wend if not isprime( 2 + p*q ) then continue for print p,q,2+p*q
next p</lang>
- Output:
