Some functions are availabl
I've revised isprime(), now it is a bit faster. The new version embedded
in a small unit can be found at:

No, the method of Agrawal, Kayal and Saxena is still in a theoretical
state and we have to wait for an efficient algorithm to apply it.
I used an old Miller-Rabin method. By testin

Indeed, isprime() is part of a routine working with the 'nat' big
numbers of the unit bigint10. Its purpose is to perform a primality
check by a strong test to the base 2 and a Lucas t
I made a function of 116 lines in assembler:
isprime(n: cardinal): boolean;
which returns true if a cardinal is prime, false otherwise.
The routine is fast and uses only an array of 18 cardinals and six
cardinals as local variables. Obviously it may be used by an external
unit, anyhow let me know
