Fermat's primality test

Check my previous video on simpler primality testing algorithms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LULHTKznczA Check my previous video on how powmod can be built in polynomial time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qed48E92qXc Fermat's primality test: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_primality_test Carmichael numbers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmichael_number Soup's number theory book: http://www.shoup.net/ntb/ntb-v2.pdf This is an implementation of Fermat's primality test in Python. The algorithm is polynomial in the size of the input and it works in O(k polylog(p)) where k is the test accuracy parameter and p is the candidate being tested. Because Fermat's algorithm uses randomness, it is a probabilistic algorithm. Fermat's test is a flawed algorithm because Carmichael numbers are composite numbers that the test thinks are prime. Polynomial-time primality testing has many applications in cryptography such as key generation. If you liked this video, please thumbs up and subscribe. This is one of my first videos.
