From: Brown Bannister on 1 Apr 2010 01:40 The "Poor Man's Prime conjecture" guesses all prime numbers are not divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 and the "Poor Man's Prime" conjecture guesses a prime number is not divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10. 1. What can we tell the poor man about his guess? 2. What are the implications of the poor man's guess being true versus what are the implications of the poor man's guess being false? Thanks, M. M. M.

We don't have to wonder.

Hi, Well what if we put it this way? The "Poor Man's Prime conjecture" guesses all prime numbers are divisible by numbers other than 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10.

We "make a conjecture", and we "make a guess", is standard English. But we don't "make a conjecture make a guess". You'll have to tighten up your grammar.

What can we tell the poor man about his guess? The poor man is deluded and thinks all prime numbers are 11 or greater. > 2.

A pretty feeble April Fools joke. Regards, Martin Brown |
