(Phys.org)—A pair of mathematicians with Stanford University has found that the distribution of the final digit of prime numbers are not as random as has been thought,which suggests prime's themselves are not. In their paper uploaded to the preprint server arXiv, Robert Lemke Oliver and Kannan Soundararajan describe their study of the final digit in prime numbers, and how they found it to be less than random,and what they believe is a possible explanation for their findings.
