Anton Felkel

Anton Felkel (born 1740 in Kamenz Silesia) was an Austrian mathematician who worked on the determination of prime numbers.

Work

In 1776 and 1777, Felkel published a table of giving complete decompositions of all integers not divisible by 2, 3, and 5, from 1 to 408000. Felkel had planned to extend his table to 10 millions. A reconstruction of his table is found on the LOCOMAT site.
