Goldbach decomposition

Goldbach's conjecture says every even integer greater than 2 is the sum of two primes. For 228, here are decompositions:

5 + 223 = 228
17 + 211 = 228
29 + 199 = 228
31 + 197 = 228
37 + 191 = 228
47 + 181 = 228
61 + 167 = 228
71 + 157 = 228

Showing the first eight; more decompositions exist.
