Then GSLp cannot be any of GSL2, GSL3, GSL5, GSL7, ..., GSLr, as otherwise p would divide the difference q-(2*3*5*7...*r) = 1, which is impossible. Therefore, GSLp must be another GSL that MVP will win. Q.E.D. Well done, Mr. Euklid  | ||

It depends on the definition of prime numbers. For example, you can define them by how you did, which would make 1 a prime number. But you can also define them by: a number is a prime number if and only if it is divisible by exactly 2 numbers. Then 1 isn't a prime number, because it is (the only number that is ) only divisible by one number, by 1. The reason why math uses the second definition and not the one you have given, is that there are a few theorems about prime numbers which only work for prime numbers =/= 1, as the unity number one has various special properties which other numbers don't have. | ||
