This article is incomprehensible, even with examples, which do not help describe at all what is going on. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.202.1.175 (talk) 11:06, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Where please is the circle in the example? -- Anon.

The formula at the end of step 4 seems wrong. What's the `7' doing there? -- Ralph Corderoy 15:50, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. You are right. The "7" was accidentally added when trying to type "&". --68.0.120.35 02:07, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't part 8 of the example be "the non-primes 4 and 25" rather than "a non-prime 25"? 137.219.45.89 06:35, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The '4' has a strike through - although it's practically invisible on my browser (Firefox, Ubuntu) 144.138.33.93 06:18, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"xn + 1 to (x + 1)n" ? Wouldn't it be better to just write "xn + 1 to xn + n" ? -- Anon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.185.249.234 (talk) 20:46, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed! Shows the range more visibly! Made the changes Jetru (talk) 14:28, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
