Hi All,
trying to find an efficient way to this in Mathematica.
I found the answer - but it was a manual list manipulation - and it
was ugly!
Any suggestions?
3 Nice Primes:
Find three 2-digit prime numbers such that:
* The average of any two of the three is a prime number, and
* The average of all three is also a prime number
Thanks!
