The following is a calculator that computes the known prime factors of the numbers b^n +/- 1 where b = 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12. Use it in the following way: Enter the base b in the first textfield, then enter the power in the second one and finally enter +1 or -1. The result will appear shortly after that. For more information about the applet please contact me at bbotev1@purdue.edu.
