A Mersenne number is a number in the form of 2P-1.

If P is prime, the Mersenne number may be a Mersenne prime (if P is not prime, the Mersenne number is also not prime).

In the search for Mersenne prime numbers it is advantageous to eliminate exponents by finding a small factor before starting a, potentially lengthy, [[Lucas-Lehmer test]].

There are very efficient algorithms for determining if a number divides 2P-1 (or equivalently, if 2P mod (the number) = 1). Some languages already have built-in implementations of this exponent-and-mod operation (called ''modPow'' or similar).

The following is how to implement this ''modPow'' yourself:

For example, let's compute 223 mod 47. Convert the exponent 23 to binary, you get 10111. Starting with square = 1, repeatedly square it. Remove the top bit of the exponent, and if it's 1 multiply square by the base of the exponentiation (2), then compute square modulo 47. Use the result of the modulo from the last step as the initial value of square in the next step:

               remove       optional
   square      top bit   multiply by 2   mod 47
────────────   ───────   ─────────────   ──────
1*1 = 1        1  0111   1*2 = 2            2
2*2 = 4        0   111      no              4
4*4 = 16       1    11   16*2 = 32         32
32*32 = 1024   1     1   1024*2 = 2048     27
27*27 = 729    1         729*2 = 1458       1

Since 223 mod 47 = 1, 47 is a factor of 2P-1. (To see this, subtract 1 from both sides: 223-1 = 0 mod 47.) Since we've shown that 47 is a factor, 223-1 is not prime. Further properties of Mersenne numbers allow us to refine the process even more. Any factor q of 2P-1 must be of the form 2kP+1, k being a positive integer or zero. Furthermore, q must be 1 or 7 mod 8. Finally any potential factor q must be [[Primality by Trial Division|prime]]. As in other trial division algorithms, the algorithm stops when 2kP+1 > sqrt(N).

These primality tests only work on Mersenne numbers where P is prime. For example, M4=15 yields no factors using these techniques, but factors into 3 and 5, neither of which fit 2kP+1.

;Task: Using the above method find a factor of 2929-1 (aka M929)

Version 2

We can use a primality test from the [[Primality by Trial Division#Common_Lisp|Primality by Trial Division]] task.

(defun primep (n)
  "Is N prime?"
  (and (> n 1)
       (or (= n 2) (oddp n))
       (loop for i from 3 to (isqrt n) by 2
	  never (zerop (rem n i)))))

Specific to this task, we define modulo-power and mersenne-prime-p.

(defun modulo-power (base power modulus)
  (loop with square = 1
        for bit across (format nil "~b" power)
        do (setf square (* square square))
        when (char= bit #\1) do (setf square (* square base))
        do (setf square (mod square modulus))
        finally (return square)))

(defun mersenne-prime-p (power)
  (do* ((N (1- (expt 2 power)))
        (sqN (isqrt N))
        (k 1 (1+ k))
        (q (1+ (* 2 power k)) (1+ (* 2 power k)))
        (m (mod q 8) (mod q 8)))
      ((> q sqN) (values t))
    (when (and (or (= 1 m) (= 7 m))
               (primep q)
               (= 1 (modulo-power 2 power q)))
      (return (values nil q)))))

We can run the same tests from the [[#Ruby|Ruby]] entry.

Following the task introduction, this uses GMP's modular exponentiation and simple probable prime test for the small numbers, then looks for small factors before doing a Lucas-Lehmer test. For ranges above about p=2000, looking for small factors this way saves time (the amount of testing should be adjusted based on the input size and platform -- this example just uses a fixed amount). Note as well that the Lucas-Lehmer test shown here is ignoring the large speedup we can get by optimizing the modulo operation, but that's a different task.

The program uses the new remainder function from OS 2.53MP, if not available it can be replaced by:

```ti83b
remainder(A,B)   equivalent to   iPart(B*fPart(A/B))
```
Due to several problems, no Goto has been used. As a matter of fact the version is clearer.

```ti83b
Prompt Q
1→K:0→T
While K≤2^20 and T=0
2KQ+1→P
remainder(P,8)→W
If W=1 or W=7
Then
0→E:0→M
If remainder(P,2)=0:1→M
If remainder(P,3)=0:1→M

While M=0 and DD≤P
If remainder(P,D)=0:1→M

If remainder(P,D)=0:1→M
