今天偶然看到BigInteger里面有一些有意思的函数。特意看了下源码

当前大数后的第一个素数

/**
    * 返回的这个数不是素数的可能性为2^-100.但不会跳过任何一个素数
    *
    * @return the first integer greater than this {@code BigInteger} that
    *         is probably prime.
    * @throws ArithmeticException {@code this < 0} or {@code this} is too large.
    * @since 1.5
