Some prime conjectures 2000-12-24
From Tarrasita:
I was given some homework to investigate the following conjectures on prime numbers

1) There is at least one prime between consecutive square numbers.

2) Every prime except 2 and 3 is of the form 6n+1 where n is a natural number.

3) Any odd prime which is of the form 4n+1 is equal to the sum of two perfect squares.
