prime-bits 1.0.6

A package to get prime numbers from bits.

Prime Bits

Prime Bits is a project focused on exploring and working with prime numbers in the context of computer science and programming.

Features

• Efficient algorithms for prime number generation.
• Utilities for prime number validation.
• Tools for analyzing prime-related patterns.

How to install

python3 -m pip install prime-bits

How to use

from prime_bits import get_prime

get_prime(1024) # 1024 -> number of bits in the number.

Functions

• get_prime - You can see what that function does above. 👆

In the version v1.0.4 I have added 2 additional functions.

• get_safe_prime - This function returns a safe prime number. (This uses multi-processing)
• is_prime - This function checks if the number given is a prime. (This uses the Miller-Rabin primality test)

from prime_bits import get_safe_prime, is_prime


get_safe_prime(1024) # This will act the exact same way as the `get_prime` function. But it will ensure that the prime number given is a safe prime.

is_prime(some_prime_number) # This will checks using the Miller-Rabin primality test, is this number a prime. If so it will return True, False otherwise.

General Utils

• gdc(a, b) - Calculate the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of two integers using the Euclidean algorithm.
• lcm(a, b) - Calculate the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two integers.
• euler_totient(n) - Calculate Euler's Totient Function φ(n), which counts the integers from 1 to n that are coprime with n.
