If no number is given, factor reads a stream of numbers from the standard input and factors them. It exits on any input not a positive integer. Maximum running time is proportional to
Lfactor reads one number from the standard input and factors it. Worst-case running time is proportional to it beats factor for hard 12-digit problems and is workable to around ..
Primes prints the prime numbers ranging from start to finish , where start and finish are positive numbers less than If finish is missing, primes prints without end; if start is missing, it reads the starting number from the standard input.
