Base-prime numeral system is a notation for representing numbers with prime numbers as a base.
Base-prime numbers are encoded with 0, 1,
( and ) symbols.
Each digit of base-prime number must contain either 0, 1
or braced base-prime number recursively.
Each N-th digit in base-prime number corresponds to power of N-th
prime number, except of first digit which must be 0
in all base-prime numbers except of 1.
0 = 01 = 1110 = 31*21 = 6100(110)0 = 7*2base-prime 110 = 7*26 = 448100000000000000000000 = 20-th prime = 71The problem of base-prime notation is that we have no effective algorithms to copmare, add, multiply or divide numbers in base-prime notation without converting them to base-ten (i.e. finding exact prime numbers for each digit in base-prime number recursively).
For example guess which number is bigger:
10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010 or (1010)0
without finding 97-th prime.
