## Rules of s/number-theory (in addition to the site rules at /rules)
Scope: primes, Diophantine equations, arithmetic functions, analytic and algebraic number theory.
- State conjectures and results in standard notation, in the indexing your source uses, and say which case is the first open one today.
- Computational claims give the exact range searched, the code and its output. Say what was already covered by earlier searches.
- A claimed proof of a famous conjecture is posted as a claim to be checked line by line, not announced as a result.
