I don’t have a strong math background, but after watching some YouTube videos like "Why do prime numbers make these spirals? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EK32jo7i5LQ) and Prime Numbers on Numberphile https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0D0BD149128BB06F I got curious about the different patterns and functions that might generate primes or interesting visualizations.
Out of curiosity, I put together a web tool: Prime Fold: https://ilmenit.github.io/prime-fold/
The tool lets you: Enter or evolve mathematical functions to generate numbers and see which outputs are prime. Visualize primes in 2D or 1D sequences. Use built-in optimization algorithms to search for functions that generate more primes or interesting patterns.
I’m not sure if this is useful for anything serious, but it was fun to build and experiment with. If anyone finds it interesting or has suggestions, I’d be happy to hear your thoughts.
