Having watched the film
Pi (a "mathematical thriller") over break, I am in a mathematical mind. For any of you mathematicians who could use and extra $100,000, check out the
Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search . The longest known prime number
discovered just last month is
9.1 million digits. The first person to discover a
"Mersenne" prime number over 10 million digits long will win the $100,000 top prize. Good luck!
