I don’t get it. Can someone Explain Like I’m 5?
There is a function that always returns false, and then a bunch of random output, and one failed?
Is this like another weird quirk in the JavaScript VM or something? Lol?
Ohhhh, so there isn’t anything crazy going on here.
It’s just literally running that function and tallying up how accurate it is as a prime number checker.
…and it gets more accurate the longer it runs. Okay, I see now. Thanks, lol.
