Issam Kaddoura, Samih Abdul-Nabi · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2012
In this paper, we propose a new primality test, and then we employ this test to find a formula for π that computes the number of primes within any interval. We finally propose a new formula that computes the nth prime number as well as the next prime for any given number
