An economical number has been defined as a frugal number, but also as a number that is either frugal or equidigital. gcd( m , n ) ( greatest common divisor of m and n ) is the product of all prime factors which are both in m and n (with the smallest multiplicity for m and n ).
a prime number has only 1 and itself as divisors; that is, d(n) = 2; a composite number has more than just 1 and itself as divisors; that is, d(n) > 2; a highly composite number has a number of positive divisors that is greater than any lesser number; that is, d(n) > d(m) for every positive integer m < n.
A prime number (or prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. By Euclid's theorem, there are an infinite number of prime numbers. Subsets of the prime numbers may be generated with various formulas for primes.
The table is complete up to the maximum norm at the end of the table in the sense that each composite or prime in the first quadrant appears in the second column. Gaussian primes occur only for a subset of norms, detailed in sequence OEIS: A055025. This here is a composition of sequences OEIS: A103431 and OEIS: A103432.
A list of articles about numbers (not about numerals). Topics include powers of ten, notable integers, prime and cardinal numbers, and the myriad system.
RSA Laboratories (which is an initialism of the creators of the technique; Rivest, Shamir and Adleman) published a number of semiprimes with 100 to 617 decimal digits. Cash prizes of varying size, up to US$200,000 (and prizes up to $20,000 awarded), were offered for factorization of some of them. The smallest RSA number was factored in a few days.

If one of the factors is composite, it can in turn be written as a product of smaller factors, for example 60 = 3 · 20 = 3 · (5 · 4). Continuing this process until every factor is prime is called prime factorization; the result is always unique up to the order of the factors by the prime factorization theorem.
