Landon Curt Noll bd63d57cb5 improve topbar for non-JavaScript and fix some internal links
For browsers that have JavaScript disabled, topbar puts up
a link that reads "Please Enable JavaScript" instead of the
so-called "hamburger menu" icon.

Fixed a number of internal links that were broken
when by commit `e7d69bc23270e8ad73d391d15d4c996ffbd33cc3 and
perhaps a few other earlier commits.

Ran `make www` to perform the above.

To build:

    make

To use:

    ./bellard

Judges' remarks:

This code is a nice compact example of a Modular Fast Fourier Transform. While its output is very specific, the internal FFT has a wide variety of uses.

Can you modify this code to produce primes such as 23523*2^70000-1, 48594^65536+1 or 6917!-1?

NOTE: as bigger primes are found as time goes by this program no longer prints the biggest prime once noted by the author below.

Author's comments:

This program prints the biggest known prime number (2^6972593-1) in base 10. It requires a few minutes. It uses a Modular Fast Fourier Transform to compute this number in a reasonable amount of time (the usual method would take ages !).

The program uses >= 64 bit long long type. It should run on any system with a gcc compiler.
