Megaprime

A megaprime is a prime number with at least one million digits.

The term "megaprime" reflects the large size of these primes. Since prime numbers become increasingly rare as numbers get larger, finding megaprimes requires significant computational power and sophisticated algorithms. The Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search (GIMPS) project is a well-known collaborative effort dedicated to discovering large prime numbers, and many megaprimes have been found through its distributed computing network. The discovery of a new megaprime is often considered a noteworthy event in the field of computational number theory.
