( primes32.tal ) ( ) ( Uses a simple trial-divion method to find primes. ) ( ) ( To determine if x is prime we: ) ( 1. Check if x is 2 (prime) ) ( 2. Check if x is even (not prime) ) ( 3. Starting with i=3, we see if x%i is 0 ) ( a. We increment i by 2 to avoid even i ) ( b. We stop when x < i*i or i=0xffff ) ( 4. If we didn't find an i, x is prime. ) ( ) ( This method can be fast for some large composite ) ( numbers but is slower for large primes. ) ( ) ( On my machine, checking 0x7fffffff took 0.5 seconds ) ( and checking 0xfffffffb took 0.9 seconds. Both are ) ( prime numbers. ) ( ) ( Smaller primes also run fairly quickly: 0x17b5d was ) ( determined to be prime in 0.02 seconds. ) %EMIT { #18 DEO } %DIGIT { #00 SWP ;digits ADD2 LDA EMIT } %SPACE { #20 EMIT } %NEWLINE { #0a EMIT } %EMIT-BYTE { DUP #04 SFT DIGIT #0f AND DIGIT } %DEBUG { #ff #0e DEO } |0100 ( number to check comes first ) #fffe #0001 OVR2 OVR2 ;is-prime32 JSR2 ( test for primality ) STH ;emit-long JSR2 SPACE STHr EMIT-BYTE NEWLINE ( output ) #00 DIV #00 ( exit with /0 to make timing easier ) BRK ( include 32-bit math library ) ~math32.tal ( return 01 if x is a prime number, else 00 ) ( works for x >= 2 ) @is-prime32 ( x** -> bool^ ) ,&x1 STR2 ,&x0 STR2 ,&x0 LDR2 ,&x1 LDR2 ( store and reload x ) DUP4 #0000 LIT2 &two 0002 ;ne32 JSR2 ( x is 2? ) ,¬-two JCN POP4 #01 JMP2r ( 2 is prime ) ¬-two DUP #01 AND ( x x&1 ) ,¬-even JCN POP4 #00 JMP2r ( x is even: not prime ) ¬-even DUP4 #0000 #0003 ;ne32 JSR2 ( x is 3? ) ,¬-three JCN POP4 #01 JMP2r ( 3 is prime ) ¬-three #0000 ,&i0 STR2 #0005 ,&i1 STR2 ( x i<-5 ) ,&two LDR2 ,&inc STR2 ,&i0 LDR2 ,&i1 LDR2 ( load our candidate, i ) ,&loop JMP ( jump over register data to loop label ) [ &i0 0000 &i1 0000 &x0 0000 &x1 0000 &inc 0000 &mask 0006 ] ( registers ) &loop ( x i ) ,&x0 LDR2 ,&x1 LDR2 ,&i0 LDR2 ,&i1 LDR2 ( x i x i ) DUP4 ;mul32 JSR2 ;lt32 JSR2 ( x i x ) SWP2 SWP EMIT-BYTE EMIT-BYTE SWP EMIT-BYTE EMIT-BYTE JMP2r ( convenience for less branching when printing hex ) @digits 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 61 62 63 64 65 66
