(PhysOrg.com) -- Prime numbers have intrigued curious thinkers
for centuries. On one hand, prime numbers seem to be randomly
distributed among the natural numbers with no other law than that of
chance. But on the other hand, the global distribution of primes
reveals a remarkably smooth regularity. This combination of randomness
and regularity has motivated researchers to search for patterns in the
distribution of primes that may eventually shed light on their ultimate
nature.
