It was proposed by Christian Goldbach that every odd composite number can be written as the sum of a prime and twice a square.
9 = 7 + 2
12
15 = 7 + 2
22
21 = 3 + 2
32
25 = 7 + 2
32
27 = 19 + 2
22
33 = 31 + 2
12

15 = 7 + 2

21 = 3 + 2

25 = 7 + 2

27 = 19 + 2

33 = 31 + 2

It turns out that the conjecture was false.
What is the smallest odd composite that cannot be written as the sum of a prime and twice a square?
Add .Tolist() extension result in 2 times faster execution.
List<int> primes = new PrimeNumberSieve().ToList(); // 15 ms -> 8 ms.
Problem46 = 5777 elapsed time: 8 ms. Test Passed.
