    If you are attempting to discover new primes then I strongly suggest you narrow the field by just focusing on ODD Numbers with DIGITAL ROOTS of 1,4,7,2,5,8. These numbers will be either primes or products of primes > 3 multiplied by primes > 3.

    All other numbers:

    EVEN numbers with digital roots 1,4,7,2,5,8
    ODD & EVEN numbers with digital roots 3,6,9

    will be multiples of 2 or 3 or multiples of both 2 & 3.
