Did you know what a Mersenne Prime is? A Mersenne prime is a prime number of the form 2P-1, where P is prime. Some of the first few Mersenne primes are 3, 7, 31, 127 (where P is 2,3,5,7). The Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search reports finding the 41st Mersenne Prime. Chris Caldwell has some superb background information on these types of prime numbers.
