This app will generate and show you all digits of all known Mersenne Primes. You can also have close look of every digit page by page.

The digits will be generated by your mobile phone's CPU and saved to your storage card. You will witness the whole process of the generation for the big ones (i.e. M77232917 , M74207281, M57885161, M43112609, M42643801, M37156667, ...), because it might need one day or two to print the digits all.

You can also locate a digit by its sequence number. e.g. the 23249268th digit of M77232917 is 8.
