Installation

pip install pseudoprimes

Probabilistic or deterministic?

The used Miller–Rabin primality test1 is deterministic until ~3.3 * 10^242 (or ~1.37 * 2^81). Numbers larger than that are tested using a probabilistic Baillie–PSW primality test3. While there are no known composite numbers that pass the test, it's believed they exist.
