The internet is a nasty place and you lot should recognise it as such. I did note this:

"As a self taught programmer of age 16, I knew from the start that taking on the complex topic of neural networks and then trying to combine it with the famously difficult field of prime numbers would be a challenge."

... and I read on and I am suitably impressed - good skills.
