Fast arbitrary length prime number checker using the Miller-Rabin primality test algorithm

This module implements the Miller-Rabin primality test algoritm. Given an arbitrary length integer specified within a string, apply the probabilistic algorithm to check if the integer may be prime.

The documentation for this crate can be found here.

Note: This crate now uses num-bigint rather than ramp, allowing it to work with Stable rather than only Nightly

Examples

extern crate is_prime;
use is_prime::*;

fn main() {
  // The first RSA Prime
  assert!(is_prime("37975227936943673922808872755445627854565536638199") == true);

  // The first RSA Prime + 1
  assert!(is_prime("37975227936943673922808872755445627854565536638200") == false);
}
