### crt
▸ **crt**(`remainders`, `modulos`, `modulo?`): `bigint`

Provided that n_i are pairwise coprime, and a_i any integers, this function returns a solution for the following system of equations:
x ≡ a_1 mod n_1
x ≡ a_2 mod n_2

### prime
▸ **prime**(`bitLength`, `iterations?`): `Promise`<`bigint`\>
A probably-prime (Miller-Rabin), cryptographically-secure, random-number generator.

main process, and it can be much faster (if several cores or cpu are available).
The node version can also use worker_threads if they are available (enabled by default with Node 11 and
and can be enabled at runtime executing node --experimental-worker with node >=10.5.0).

RangeError if bitLength < 1

RangeError if bitLength < 1
#### Parameters
