 * First we check whether the num input is less than 4, if so we can determine
 * whether this is a prime or composite by checking for 2 and 3.
 * Next we check whether this num is odd (as all primes greater than 2 are odd).
 * Next we write our num in the following format \f$num = 2^r \cdot d + 1\f$.
 * After finding r and d for our input num, we use for loop repeat number of
 * times inside which we check the miller conditions using the function
 * miller_test. If miller_test returns false then the number is composite After
 * the loop finishes completely without issuing a false return call, we can
 * conclude that this number is probably prime.
