DESCRIPTION: Solves problem 97 of Project Euler
The first known prime found to exceed one million digits was discovered in 1999, and is a Mersenne prime of the form 2^6972593 - 1.
it contains exactly 2,098,960 digits. Subsequently other Mersenne primes, of the form 2^p - 1, have been found which contain more digits.
However, in 2004 there was found a massive non-Mersenne prime which contains 2,357,207 digits: 28433 * 2^7830457 + 1.
Find the last ten digits of this prime number.
