What (who) is pseudoprime - definition


pseudoprime         
SPECIAL TYPE OF NUMBER IN MATHEMATICS
Pseudoprimes; Pseudo-prime; Pseudo prime; Pseudoprimality; Pseudoprime Numbers; Pseudoprime Number
A backgammon prime (six consecutive occupied points) with one point missing. This term is an esoteric pun derived from a mathematical method that, rather than determining precisely whether a number is prime (has no divisors), uses a statistical technique to decide whether the number is "probably" prime. A number that passes this test is called a pseudoprime. The hacker backgammon usage stems from the idea that a pseudoprime is almost as good as a prime: it does the job of a prime until proven otherwise, and that probably won't happen. [Jargon File]
