      I’m really proud of the work I’ve done on the PrimeGrid project (see http://www.primegrid.com). It’s a volunteer computing project that you can join in by downloading the software from our website. We search for very large prime numbers that are used to answer some problems in Number Theory – that’s a branch of Maths that studies numbers themselves! You can use your home computers (or your school’s, if you teacher lets you!).
