... And it is true that n2 + n + 41 remains prime up to n = 39. But when n = 40, n2 + n + 41 will be 402 + 40 + 41 = 40(40 + 1) + 41, quite clearly divisible by 41. And even more clearly it will not be prime for n = 41. Are these isolated examples? Not at all. From n = 42, n2 + n + 41 is often prime and ...

Law of large numbers
In probability theory, the law of large numbers (LLN) is a theorem that describes the result of performing the same experiment a large number of times. According to the law, the average of the results obtained from a large number of trials should be close to the expected value, and will tend to become closer as more trials are performed.The LLN is important because it ""guarantees"" stable long-term results for the averages of some random events. For example, while a casino may lose money in a single spin of the roulette wheel, its earnings will tend towards a predictable percentage over a large number of spins. Any winning streak by a player will eventually be overcome by the parameters of the game. It is important to remember that the LLN only applies (as the name indicates) when a large number of observations are considered. There is no principle that a small number of observations will coincide with the expected value or that a streak of one value will immediately be ""balanced"" by the others (see the gambler's fallacy)
