This formula generates all prime numbers 5 and higher up to any chosen number. The distinction between this prime number formula and any previously known methods is that this formula uses calculations to deliver the positions of the prime numbers rather than determining whether each and every number is a prime number or is not a prime number. With not having to calculate each and every number, this formula therefore delivers a method that is faster than any known method to find all desired prime numbers. Whether 1, 2 and 3 turn out to be prime numbers or not is a matter of definition. Current definition forces me to claim that this method, up to the chosen number, finds all prime numbers 5 and higher.
