Abstract

This paper gives an introduction to the Prime Number Theorem via the use of a computer algebra system. Special consideration is given to the fact that the results might mislead the unsuspecting person to expect an asymptotically linear relationship. The article is accessible to anyone who had two semesters of calculus.
