If $p$ is a prime number, then a primitive root modulo $p$ is an integer $a$ such that $(a \bmod p)$ generates multiplicatively the group of non-zero residues modulo $p$. For finding a primitive root modulo $p$, one can try out candidates. Our aim is to discuss which candidates to try first, heuristically, according to Artin's conjecture on primitive roots.
