Task
Semiprime
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Semiprime numbers are natural numbers that are products of exactly two (possibly equal) prime numbers.


Semiprimes   are also known as:

  •   semi-primes
  •   biprimes
  •   bi-primes
  •   2-almost   primes
  •   or simply:   P2


Example
   1679  =  23 × 73  

(This particular number was chosen as the length of the Arecibo message).


Task

Write a function determining whether a given number is semiprime.

Ada

This imports the package Prime_Numbers from Prime decomposition#Ada.

<lang ada>with Prime_Numbers, Ada.Text_IO;

procedure Test_Semiprime is

  package Integer_Numbers is new 
    Prime_Numbers (Natural, 0, 1, 2); 
  use Integer_Numbers;
  

begin

  for N in 1 .. 100 loop
     if Decompose(N)'Length = 2 then -- N is a semiprime;

Ada.Text_IO.Put(Integer'Image(Integer(N)));

     end if;
  end loop;
  Ada.Text_IO.New_Line;
  for N in 1675 .. 1680 loop
     if Decompose(N)'Length = 2 then -- N is a semiprime;

Ada.Text_IO.Put(Integer'Image(Integer(N)));

     end if;
  end loop; 

end Test_Semiprime;</lang>

It outputs all semiprimes below 100 and all semiprimes between 1675 and 1680:

Output:
4 6 9 10 14 15 21 22 25 26 33 34 35 38 39 46 49 51 55 57 58 62 65 69 74 77 82 85 86 87 91 93 94 95
1678 1679 

Note that

1675 = 5 * 5 * 67, 
1676 = 2 * 2 * 419, 
1677 = 3 * 13 * 43,
1678 = 2 * 839,
1679 = 23 * 73,
1680 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 * 7,

so the result printed is actually correct.

Bracmat

When Bracmat is asked to take the square (or any other) root of a number, it does so by first finding the number's prime factors. It can do that for numbers up to 2^32 or 2^64 (depending on compiler and processor). <lang bracmat>semiprime=

 m n a b

. 2^-64:?m

 & 2*!m:?n
 &   !arg^!m

 & (!a.!b);</lang>

Like the Ada example here, this borrows from Prime decomposition and shows the semiprimes below 100 and from 1675 to 1680. <lang java5>import java.math.BigInteger; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List;

public class SemiPrime{ private static final BigInteger TWO = BigInteger.valueOf(2);

//quickly handle even values List<BigInteger> result = new ArrayList<BigInteger>(); while(a.and(BigInteger.ONE).equals(BigInteger.ZERO)){ a = a.shiftRight(1); result.add(TWO); }

//left with odd values if(!a.equals(BigInteger.ONE)){ BigInteger b = BigInteger.valueOf(3); while(b.compareTo(a) < 0){ if(b.isProbablePrime(10)){ BigInteger[] dr = a.divideAndRemainder(b); if(dr[1].equals(BigInteger.ZERO)){ result.add(b); a = dr[0]; } } b = b.add(TWO); } result.add(b); //b will always be prime here... } return result; }

public static boolean isSemi(BigInteger x){ List<BigInteger> decomp = primeDecomp(x); return decomp != null && decomp.size() == 2; }

public static void main(String[] args){ for(int i = 2; i <= 100; i++){ if(isSemi(BigInteger.valueOf(i))){ System.out.print(i + " "); } } System.out.println(); for(int i = 1675; i <= 1680; i++){ if(isSemi(BigInteger.valueOf(i))){ System.out.print(i + " "); } } } }</lang>

Perl

Library: ntheory

With late versions of the ntheory module, we can use is_semiprime to get answers for 64-bit numbers in single microseconds. <lang perl>use ntheory "is_semiprime"; for ([1..100], [1675..1681], [2,4,99,100,1679,5030,32768,1234567,9876543,900660121]) {

 print join(" ",grep { is_semiprime($_) } @$_),"\n";

}</lang>

Output:
4 6 9 10 14 15 21 22 25 26 33 34 35 38 39 46 49 51 55 57 58 62 65 69 74 77 82 85 86 87 91 93 94 95
1678 1679 1681
4 1679 1234567 900660121

One can also use factor in scalar context, which gives the number of factors (like bigomega in Pari/GP and PrimeOmega in Mathematica). This skips some optimizations but at these small sizes it doesn't matter. <lang perl>use ntheory "factor"; print join(" ", grep { scalar factor($_) == 2 } 1..100),"\n";</lang>

While is_semiprime is the fastest way, we can do some of its pre-tests by hand, such as: <lang perl>use ntheory qw/factor is_prime trial_factor/; sub issemi {

 my $n = shift;
 if ((my @p = trial_factor($n,500)) > 1) {
   return 0 if @p > 2;
   return !!is_prime($p[1]) if @p == 2;
 }
 2 == factor($n);

}</lang>

     "It is a semiprime.\n" : "It is not a semiprime.\n");

Racket

The first implementation considers all pairs of factors multiplying up to the given number and determines if any of them is a pair of primes. <lang Racket>#lang racket (require math)

(define (pair-factorize n)

 "Return all two-number factorizations of a number"
 (let ([up-limit (integer-sqrt n)])
   (map (λ (x) (list x (/ n x)))

(filter (λ (x) (<= x up-limit)) (divisors n)))))

(define (semiprime n)

 "Determine if a number is semiprime i.e. a product of two primes.

Check if any pair of complete factors consists of primes."

 (for/or ((pair (pair-factorize n)))
   (for/and ((el pair))
     (prime? el))))</lang>

The alternative implementation operates directly on the list of prime factors and their multiplicities. It is approximately 1.6 times faster than the first one (according to some simple tests of mine). <lang Racket>#lang racket (require math)

(define (semiprime n)

 "Alternative implementation.

Check if there are two prime factors whose product is the argument or if there is a single prime factor whose square is the argument"

 (let ([prime-factors (factorize n)])
   (or (and (= (length prime-factors) 1)

(= (expt (caar prime-factors) (cadar prime-factors)) n)) (and (= (length prime-factors) 2) (= (foldl (λ (x y) (* (car x) y)) 1 prime-factors) n)))))</lang>

More efficient example

Here is a more verbose, but MUCH more efficient implementation. Demonstrating using it to find an infinite list of semiprimes and to check a range of integers to find the semiprimes.

Works with: Rakudo version 2017.02

<lang perl6>sub is-semiprime ( Int $n where * > 0 ) {

   return False if $n.is-prime;
   my $factor = find-factor( $n );
   return True if $factor.is-prime && ( $n div $factor ).is-prime;
   False;

}

sub find-factor ( Int $n, $constant = 1 ) {

   my $x      = 2;
   my $rho    = 1;
   my $factor = 1;
   while $factor == 1 {
       $rho *= 2;
       my $fixed = $x;
       for ^$rho {
           $x = ( $x * $x + $constant ) % $n;
           $factor = ( $x - $fixed ) gcd $n;
           last if 1 < $factor;
       }
   }
   $factor = find-factor( $n, $constant + 1 ) if $n == $factor;
   $factor;

}

INIT my $start = now;

  1. Infinite list of semiprimes

constant @semiprimes = lazy gather for 4 .. * { .take if .&is-semiprime };

  1. Show the semiprimes < 100

say 'Semiprimes less than 100:'; say @semiprimes[^ @semiprimes.first: * > 100, :k ], "\n";

  1. Check individual integers, or in this case, a range

my $s = 2⁹⁷ - 1; say "Is $_ semiprime?: ", .&is-semiprime for $s .. $s + 30;

say 'elapsed seconds: ', now - $start; </lang>

version 2

The method used is to examine integers, skipping primes.

If it's composite (the 1st factor is prime), then check if the 2nd factor is prime.   If so, the number is a   semiprime.

The   isPrime   function could be optimized by utilizing an integer square root function instead of testing if   j*j>x   for every divisor. <lang rexx>/*REXX program determines if any integer (or a range of integers) is/are semiprime. */ parse arg bot top . /*obtain optional arguments from the CL*/ if bot== | bot=="," then bot=random() /*None given?

If the 2nd argument   (top)   is negative   (it's absolute value is used),   individual numbers in the range aren't shown, but the   count   of semiprimes found is shown.

It gets its speed increase by the use of memoization of the prime numbers found, an unrolled primality (division) check, and other speed improvements. <lang rexx>/*REXX program determines if any integer (or a range of integers) is/are semiprime. */ parse arg bot top . /*obtain optional arguments from the CL*/ if bot== | bot=="," then bot=random() /*None given?
