11 (number) to be a Mersenne prime, the converse is not true: 2 − 1 = 2047 which is 23 × 89. 11 raised to the nth power is the nth row of Pascal's Triangle. (This works for any base, but the number eleven must be changed to the number represented as 11 in that base; for example, in duodecimal this must be done using thirteen.) 11 is a Heegner number, meaning that the ring of integers of the field formula_1 has the property of unique factorization. One consequence of this is that there exists at most one point on the elliptic
Prime number listing all of the primes or prime factorizations up to a given limit were commonly printed. The oldest method for generating a list of primes is called the sieve of Eratosthenes. The animation shows an optimized variant of this method. Another more efficient sieving method for the same problem is the sieve of Atkin. In advanced mathematics, sieve theory applies similar methods to other problems. Some of the fastest modern tests for whether an arbitrary given number formula_1 is prime are probabilistic (or Monte Carlo) algorithms, meaning that they have a small random chance of producing an incorrect answer.
