A prime numberis defined as a positive integer which has exactly two factors: one and itself. A factor is an integer which divides evenly into it--that is, divides with a remainder of zero. By this definition one and zero are not prime. One only has one factor which is itself, and zero divided by any number always has a remainder of zero, so it effectively has infinite factors.

Below is a list of tasks which involve the calculation or use of prime numbers.
