Lehmer's Continued Fraction Factorization Algorithm

  • Hmm. I was expecting “LeetCode for Arxiv" to show code. That’s an exiting idea. But there doesn’t seem to be any code, unless I’m missing something. Is the purpose just to be a longform explanation of a paper?

  • Lehmer’s continued fraction factorization algorithm was used to factor the seventh Fermat number in 1975.
