Prime Number
A number p>1 is prime if it has no divisor other than 1 and itself. Note that 1 is usually defined as being neither prime nor composite because it is its only factor among the natural numbers. 0 is also defined as neither because any number times 0 is equal to 0, so it would have an "infinite" number of factors.
