A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 and it is not divisible by natural numbers other than 1 and itself. In other words, a prime number has factors of 1 and itself only. All other numbers are called composite numbers. According to the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, any integer greater than 1 is either a prime number itself or can be written as the product of a series of prime numbers. If the order of these prime numbers in the product is disregarded, the written form will be unique. The smallest prime number is 2
