The first 100,000 prime numbers

  This file contains the first 100,000 primes as well as the C program (frightfully primitive as it may be) which is used to calculate them. They were calculated at using a Cray X-MP. ***Program Begins*** #include "stdio.h" #include "math.h" int number; main() {         printf("Which number do you wish to start the test with? ");         scanf("%d",&number);         printf("\n");         printf("I'm starting with number %d\n",number);         if (number<1) number=1;         if (number==1) printf("1\n");         if (number<=2) printf("2\n");         if (!(number % 2)) number++;         if (number==1) number=3;         do         {                 if (isprime(number)) printf("%d\n",number);         ...
