Problem 60939. Frequencies of prime gaps
Problem statement
Given two positive integers n and Δ, write a function which computes the frequency of the gap Δ between two consecutive of the primes in the prime vector going from 2 to n.
Examples
- For n = 100 and Δ= 2, your function should return f = 1/3 since one third of the prime gaps between 2 and 97 equal Δ;
- For n = 1000 and Δ= 6, your function should return f = 44/167;
