gmp_prob_prime

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

gmp_prob_primeCheck if number is "probably prime"

Beschreibung

gmp_prob_prime(GMP|int|string $num, int $repetitions = 10): int

The function uses Miller-Rabin's probabilistic test to check if a number is a prime.

Parameter-Liste

num

The number being checked as a prime.

Ein GMP-Object, ein Integer oder eine numeriche Zeichenkette.

repetitions

Reasonable values of repetitions vary from 5 to 10 (default being 10); a higher value lowers the probability for a non-prime to pass as a "probable" prime.

Ein GMP-Object, ein Integer oder eine numeriche Zeichenkette.

Rückgabewerte

If this function returns 0, num is definitely not prime. If it returns 1, then num is "probably" prime. If it returns 2, then num is surely prime.

Beispiele

Beispiel #1 gmp_prob_prime() example

<?php
// definitely not a prime
echo gmp_prob_prime("6") . "\n";

// probably a prime
echo gmp_prob_prime("1111111111111111111") . "\n";

// definitely a prime
echo gmp_prob_prime("11") . "\n";
?>

<?php
$max
= 2147483647;

$primesFound = 0;
$probablePrimes = 0;

for (
$x = 1; $x <= $max; $x++) {
$primeStatus = gmp_prob_prime($x);
if (
$primeStatus == 1) {
$probablePrimes++;
} else if (
$primeStatus == 2) {
$primesFound++;
}
}
echo
"Total primes found: " . $primesFound . " between 1 and " . $max . ". Probable primes in this interval: " . $probablePrimes;
?>

Based on that the following results were obtained:

1 - 100000 - certain primes found: 9592, probable: 0
1 - 1000000 - certain primes found: 78498, probable: 0
1 - 10000000 - certain primes found: 78498, probable: 586081
1 - 100000000 - certain primes found: 78498, probable: 5682957
1 - 1000000000 - certain primes found: 78498, probable: 50769036
1 - 2147483647 - certain primes found: 78498, probable: 105019067
