Special Prime Circles
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System

A prime circle of order contains the numbers from 1 to such that the sum of every pair of adjacent numbers is prime. A special prime circle is similar, except that the positive difference between adjacent numbers is also prime. This Demonstration generates one prime circle of every possible order between 14 and 50 and highlights the sum and positive difference of adjacent numbers.
