Is there a formal name for the product of the first N primes?

1.4k Views Asked by At

I was wondering if there is a formal name for a composite number that is produced by multiplying the first N primes.

Examples: 6 = 2 * 3

30 = 2 * 3 * 5

210 = 2 * 3 * 5 * 7

etc.

Almost like a factorial. Unfortunately the term "Factorial Prime" has a very different meaning.

They are called primorials.

To search for it, you could've gone to the OEIS and entered the first four of them. It's a handy tool for exactly this kind of thing.
