Primality by Wilson's theorem
From Rosetta Code
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
- Task
Write a boolean function that tells whether a given integer is prime using Wilson's theorem..
By Wilson's thoerem, a number p is prime if p divides (p - 1)! + 1.
Remember that 1 and all non-positive integers are not prime.

The "slow" factor may be different on different processors and programming environments. For example, on Tio.run, the "slow" factor is anywhere between 120 and 180 times slower. Slowness most likely caused by the sluggish BigInteger library usage. The SoE method, although quicker, does consume some memory (due to the flags BitArray). The Wilson's theorem method may consume considerable memory due to the large factorials (the f variable) when computing larger primes.
The Wilson's theorem method is better suited for computing single primes, as the SoE method causes one to compute all the primes up to the desired item. In this C# implementation, a running factorial is maintained to help the Wilson's theorem method be a little more efficient. The stand-alone results show that when having to compute a BigInteger factorial for every primality test, the performance drops off considerably more.

Needless to say, Wilson's theorem is an extremely inefficient way of testing for primalty with 'big integer' arithmetic being needed to compute factorials greater than 20.
Presumably we're not allowed to make any trial divisions here except by the number two where all even positive integers, except two itself, are obviously composite.

for k := n; k > 1; k-- {
res *= k
}
return res
}
// If memo == true, stores previous sequential

Plain English[edit]
To run:
Start up.
Show some primes (via Wilson's theorem).
Wait for the escape key.
Shut down.
The maximum representable factorial is a number equal to 12. \32-bit signed
To show some primes (via Wilson's theorem):
If a counter is past the maximum representable factorial, exit.
If the counter is prime (via Wilson's theorem), write "" then the counter then " " on the console without advancing.
Repeat.
A prime is a number.
A factorial is a number.
To find a factorial of a number:
Put 1 into the factorial.
Loop.
If a counter is past the number, exit.
Multiply the factorial by the counter.
Repeat.
To decide if a number is prime (via Wilson's theorem):
If the number is less than 1, say no.
Find a factorial of the number minus 1. Bump the factorial.
If the factorial is evenly divisible by the number, say yes.
Say no.
- Output:
1 2 3 5 7 11

No attempt is made to optimise this as this method is a very poor primality test.

REXX[edit]
Some effort was made to optimize the factorial computation by using memoization and also minimize the size of the
decimal digit precision (NUMERIC DIGITS expression).
Also, a "pretty print" was used to align the displaying of a list.

Programming note: This REXX program makes use of LINESIZE REXX program (or
BIF) which is used to determine the screen width
(or linesize) of the terminal (console). Some
REXXes don't have this BIF.
The LINESIZE.REX REXX program is included here ───► LINESIZE.REX.

Due to a limitation in the size of integers which Wren can handle (2^53-1) and lack of big integer support, we can only reliably demonstrate primality using Wilson's theorem for numbers up to 19.
