I know I'm late, but anyway here is the latest Dimitre's puzzle. Don't post your anwers here, just send them him to dnovatchev AT gmail DOT com. Dimitre will be collecting answers only for another week, so hurry up.
I just started reading the book "The Da Vinci code" and this resulted in having some fun with XSLT 2.0, Saxon 8.4 and Saxon.NET.
Here's the problem:
Find the first 10-digit prime in consecutive digits of F-3000
Where F-N is the Nth Fibonacci number.
Here are the elements of the sequence of Fibonacci numbers from 0 to 11:
Element: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144
Index: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
It is *very important* to note that the first "1" in the sequence has index "0", so that everyone will mean the same thing by F-3000
When you have the answer, please, let me know:
1. The 10 digit prime number
2. The xslt code
3. The stylesheet execution time.
4. Your computer -- CPU speed and RAM
5. Whether or not you used any specific extension functions.
