5900f3e71000cf542c50fefa Problem 123: Prime square remainders 5 301750 problem-123-prime-square-remainders

--description--

Let p_n be the n$th prime: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ..., and let $r be the remainder when {(p_n1)}^n + {(p_n+1)}^n is divided by {p_n}^2.

For example, when n = 3, p_3 = 5, and 4^3 + 6^3 = 280 ≡ 5\\ mod\\ 25.

The least value of n for which the remainder first exceeds 10^9 is 7037.

Find the least value of n for which the remainder first exceeds 10^{10}.

--hints--

primeSquareRemainders() should return 21035.

assert.strictEqual(primeSquareRemainders(), 21035);

--seed--

--seed-contents--

function primeSquareRemainders() {

  return true;
}

primeSquareRemainders();
