The first known prime found to exceed one million digits was discovered in 1999, and is a Mersenne prime of the form 2< sup > 6972593< / sup > − 1; it contains exactly 2,098,960 digits. Subsequently other Mersenne primes, of the form 2< sup > < var > p< / var > < / sup > − 1, have been found which contain more digits.
However, in 2004 there was found a massive non-Mersenne prime which contains 2,357,207 digits: 28433× 2< sup > 7830457< / sup > +1.
