    Monkeys are old hat. I much prefer to calculate pi in binary and then dump the result into a bitmap, then scroll through it infinitely. Eventually I’ll learn everyone’s secrets…

        Considering a large portion of cryptography is based around large prime numbers being incredibly hard to find, I find it hard to believe anybody has found a significant pattern in them. That’s kind of the whole point.

        Can you link to what you’re talking about?

        The only thing I can think of is the sieve of Eratothenes, but geometric representations aren’t typical, and they aren’t that pretty of a picture. For the ones I’ve seen, anyway.
