In [ 5 ] a criterion for prime numbers using Pascal's triangle was introduced. This criterion may be generalized to corresponding criteria with a parameter c ⩾, 2 if a set of some natural numbers is excluded. For c = 3 this set was found in [ 3 ], and here the corresponding set for c = 4 is determined.
