Nprime

Nprime, a simple and fast naive module for testing/calculating primes on the fly.

Install

$ npm install nprime [-g]

require:

var Nprime  = require( 'nprime' );

Run Tests

to run all test files, install devDependecies:

 $ cd nprime/
 # install or update devDependecies 
 $ npm install --dev
 # run tests 
 $ npm test

to execute a single test file simply do:

 $ node test/file-name.js

Run Benchmarks

run benchmark (find the first million of primes):

 $ cd nprime/
 $ npm run bench
 # or to run a single file 
 $ node bench/file-name-bench.js

Methods

Arguments within [ ] are optional.

/*
 * Check if the number is composite.
 * It returns the value of first divisor,
 * or -1 if number is a prime.
 */
Nprime#test : function () : Number
 
/*
 * Get the next prime p >= n, use strict for >.
 */
Nprime#next : function ( Number n [, Boolean strict ] ) : Number
 
/*
 * Get the previous prime p <= n, use strict for <.
 */
Nprime#prev : function ( Number n [, Boolean strict ] ) : Number
