Mersenne Primes and Perfect Numbers


Mersenne prime is a prime number that is one less than a power of two. That is, it is a prime number of the form 2n − 1 for some integer n. There are also connected to perfect numbers. The largest known prime number, 282,589,933 − 1, is a Mersenne prime. Finding Mersenne prime and validating it is a computation intensive task. This video demonstrates how to generate Mersenne primes using ZCubes, and will also explore the relationship with Perfect numbers.
