PrimeGrid NMax and date appear to be incorrect
Can you provide a link that shows that the effort has fully reached n=5500000? We could not locate it.
Per the below primes page, the largest prime is n=5185268:
https://www.primegrid.com/primes/primes.php?project=PPS&sortby=date
Per the below drive page, the MinN in progress is n=5159656, the MaxN in progress is n=5193992.
http://www.primegrid.com/stats_pps_llr.php
We only update the NMax every few months and use the MinN in progress since that is the smallest test that is still outstanding. Here it is n=5159656.
In this case, we would probably update it when the effort reached n=5200000. Also when updating the NMax, the date needs to be updated.
Are the above links correct? If so and you prefer that it be updated now, then NMax should be n=5160000 (rounded off) and date should be 2024-07-07. --Gd barnes (talk) 07:14, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- I rounded down (to n=5.15M) and applied the change myself based on prior precedent. Please sign your posts (I had to sign yours above) and don't use so many line breaks. --Happy5214 (talk) 15:14, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- PG uses the same status page of all k<1200, but changes the range of current searched values. A clear date of begin or end of such ranges seems not listed or hidden in their forum posts. It's also hard to give/find a date of for example a found Sierpinksi prime an days/weeks after that found the completed range to this n-value. It's a pity from begin of PG. Automated prime findings but nobody there to keep aome history, their Wiki contains also almost no information about these ranges. Karbon (talk) 20:04, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
