I also think it went quite well!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14194595139510665851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3722233.post-539460253135498882015-05-27T13:59:09.848-05:002015-05-27T13:59:09.848-05:00Starting with {2}, and repeating the process do yo...Starting with {2}, and repeating the process do you eventually get all primes? Is *any* finite set of primes, such that the process generates all primes?<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11328704710466486487noreply@blogger.com
