The List of Largest Known Primes

The list of 5000 largest known primes will always be available here.  You can view it and search it here! If you want to download a snapshot of the list to print or view at another time, there are several possibilities (these files were last modified on 19 March 2024 03:38:32 am).

all.txt
The whole list as a printable text file!  This is a large file: 408.76 KB.
all.zip
The whole list (all.txt) zipped, so it is roughly one fourth the size of all.txt: 115.53 KB.
short.txt
All of the primes with 800,000 digits or more, plus the 'interesting' smaller primes (that is, those with comments on the list). So this is a much smaller file: 372.24 KB.

You might also consider one of the summary pages (these are automatically updated when new primes are accepted onto the list!)

The Top Twenty
The Top Twenty lists is a series of pages each dedicated to listing the top twenty primes of certain selected forms.
The Largest Known Primes
This is a single page which summarizes much of the information in the pages about the 5000 largest known primes from introduction through list of the top ten primes of a few selected forms.
