Yes, but keep in mind:

I can't read

Touché

4 then - if 1 isn't a prime, then 1+4 doesn't count.

EDIT - should have been 1+3, doh!

2+2

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Jesus, I forgot 2 was a prime, what a dolt.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

1+4=5 not 4 and 4 isn't prime either, so idk what you meant. 4 is the sum of two primes 2+2, which I thought was what you were asking at first.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I screwed up twice here. Forgot 2 was a prime somehow.

1+4 was just a typo, meant 1+3.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

1+4 is 5 though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Yeah, typo. But I was wrong anyway! :-)
