formula for nth prime (!)
John Hanna
Who knew this all this time and didn’t tell me?
The article:
Having trouble with the Python code in the attached: it works up to p(6). At p(7) the program breaks because the int from fact(7) is too large to convert to a float (it returns inf).
Workaround?
Killing time,
John

I need a bigfloat!
And it’s not 7!, it’s 171! (and higher) that appears when computing p(7).
