I believe that patterns.prime is about things like A’ or C’‘’.

If you are trying to detect if an integer is prime you could use a function like this…

I’d like to know about this prime pattern too, there are a bunch of new ones that dropped recently. Any updates from Desmos would be most welcome.

@mxepstein unfortunately that function doesn’t really work too well as it renders expressions equally valid as numbers themselves and gives false positives to numbers like pi, etc.
