Problem 40
(Intermediate 🌟🌟) Goldbach's conjecture says that every positive even number greater than 2
is the sum of two prime numbers. Example: 28 = 5 + 23
. It is one of the most famous facts in number theory that has not been proved to be correct in the general case. It has been numerically confirmed up to very large numbers (much larger than we can go with our Prolog system). Write a predicate to find the two prime numbers that sum up to a given even integer.
def Nat.isPrime (n : Nat) : Bool := Id.run do
if n ≤ 2 then
return false
for d in [2:n] do
if n % d = 0 then
return false
if d ^ 2 > n then
break
return true
-- You can use this!
#check Nat.isPrime
def goldbach (n : Nat) : Nat × Nat := Id.run do
sorry
-- The following codes are for test and you should not edit these.
def goldbachTest (n : Nat) : IO Unit :=
let (fst, snd) := goldbach n
if fst + snd ≠n then
throw <| .userError s!"failed: {fst} + {snd} ≠{n}"
else if ! fst.isPrime || ! snd.isPrime then
throw <| .userError s!"failed: {fst} and {snd} must be prime."
else
IO.println s!"ok! {n} = {fst} + {snd}"
