Curiosities

1) Relation to multiples of 6: Every prime number greater than 3 is always one less or one more than a multiple of 6.
Example: `19181` is 1 less than `19182` (multiple of 6).

2) Square minus 1 divisible by 24: For every prime number greater than 3, if 1 is subtracted from its square, the result is always divisible by 24.
Example: The square of `19181` is `367910761`. Subtracting 1, we get `367910760`. Note that `367910760 ÷ 24 = 15329615`.

3) Difference of squares: Every prime number greater than 2 can be expressed as the difference of the squares of two consecutive natural numbers.
Example: `19181 = 9591^2 - 9590^2 = 91987281 - 91968100`

4) Sum of two squares: Every prime number of the form `4n+1` (where n is a positive natural number) can be expressed as the sum of two squares.
Example: `19181 = 35^2 + 134^2 = 1225 + 17956`, where `19181 = 4 × 4795 + 1`.

5) Form `4n+1` or `4n-1`: Except for the number 2, all prime numbers follow the pattern `4n+1` or `4n-1`, where `n` is a natural number.
Example: `19181` is of the form `4n+1`, where `n = 4795`.
