Abstract(in English) We made computer experiments for finding an efficient way of generating prime numbers. We used random numbers of the type ax+1 to be tested for primality. Varying the value of a from 1 to 60,000, we counted the number of primes out of 10,000 odd integers of the above type. The result of the experiments show that a good choice of a is such that a=p^#, where p^# is the product of all primes up to p. This result coincides with a theoretically kwown asymptotic distribution.
