In 1922 Hardy and Littlewood proposed a conjecture on the asymptotic density of admissible prime k-tuples. In 2011, Wolf computed the “Skewes number” for twin primes, i.e., the first prime at which a reversal of the HardyLittlewood inequality occurs. In this paper, we find “Skewes numbers” for 8 more prime k-tuples and provide numerical data in support of the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture. Moreover, we present several algorithms to compute such numbers.

The results of computer investigation of the sign changes of the difference between the number of twin primes pi2 (x) and the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture C2Li2 (x) are reported. It turns out that d2 (x) = pi2 (x) - C2Li2 (x) changes the sign at unexpectedly low values of x and for x less than 248 = 2.81... x 1014 there are 477118 sign changes of this difference. It is conjectured that the number of sign changes of d2 (x) for x element of (1, T ) is given by T log(T). The running logarithmic densities of the sets for which d2 (x) greather than 0 and d2 (x) less than 0 are plotted for x up to 2 48.
