Fast prime sieving algorithm by Philip Zimmermann, March 1987.
This is the fastest algorithm I know of for quickly sieving for
large (hundreds of bits in length) "random" probable primes, because
it uses only single-precision (16-bit) arithmetic. Because rigorous
prime testing algorithms are very slow, it is recommended that
potential prime candidates be quickly passed through this fast
sieving algorithm first to weed out numbers that are obviously not
prime.
This algorithm is optimized to search sequentially for a large prime
from a random starting point. For generalized nonsequential prime
testing, the slower conventional sieve should be used, as given
in primetest(p).
This algorithm requires a fixed table (called primetable) of the
first hundred or so small prime numbers.
First we select a random odd starting point (p) for our prime
search. Then we build a table of 16-bit remainders calculated
from that initial p. This table of 16-bit remainders is exactly
the same length as the table of small 16-bit primes. Each
remainders table entry contains the remainder of p divided by the
corresponding primetable entry. Then we begin sequentially testing
all odd integers, starting from the initial odd random p. The
distance we have searched from the huge random starting point p is
a small 16-bit number, pdelta. If pdelta plus a remainders table
entry is evenly divisible by the corresponding primetable entry,
then p+pdelta is factorable by that primetable entry, which means
p+pdelta is not prime.

/* mp_sqrt - returns square root of a number.

This version needs optimization.
by Charles W. Merritt July 15, 1989, refined by PRZ.
These are notes on computing the square root the manual old-fashioned
way. This is the basis of the fast sqrt algorithm mp_sqrt below:
1) Separate the number into groups (periods) of two digits each,
beginning with units or at the decimal point.
2) Find the greatest perfect square in the left hand period & write
its square root as the first figure of the required root. Subtract
the square of this number from the left hand period. Annex to the
remainder the next group so as to form a dividend.
3) Double the root already found and write it as a partial divisor at
the left of the new dividend. Annex one zero digit, making a trial
divisor, and divide the new dividend by the trial divisor.
4) Write the quotient in the root as the trial term and also substitute
this quotient for the annexed zero digit in the partial divisor,
making the latter complete.
5) Multiply the complete divisor by the figure just obtained and,
if possible, subtract the product from the last remainder.
If this product is too large, the trial term of the quotient
must be replaced by the next smaller number and the operations
preformed as before.
(IN BINARY, OUR TRIAL TERM IS ALWAYS 1 AND WE USE IT OR DO NOTHING.)
6) Proceed in this manner until all periods are used.
If there is still a remainder, it's not a perfect square.
