 Can you provide some incite into why it is not working correctly. Am 
 stumped on this one.
 
 Thanks,

+I don't know why exactly the SmallPrimeSppTest doesn't work -- it 
+simply returns the wrong results [ie, if you give it a prime number, 
+SmallPrimeSppTest says it isn't prime]. The Rabin-Miller test returns 
+the correct results.
