Wegrzynowski contents the following false statement: "It is possible to find a polynomial of the form n^2 + n + B that gives prime numbers for n = 0...A, A being any number." It is known that the maximum is A = 39 for B = 41. - Luis Rodriguez (luiroto(AT)yahoo.com), Jun 22 2008 %C A005846 Contrary to the last comment, Mollin's Theorem 2.1 shows that any A is possible if the Prime k-tuples Conjecture is assumed.
