Greetings all,
I was wondering if it was common practice (ie: the norm) for
P-1 to take the product of two or more factors when giving out
a found factor, if two of more factors are found?
To clarify, I was curious about how P-1 would indicate more
than one factor being found. So, I took M113 and fed it into
Prime95 with the bounds of B1=200, B2=20000. Prime95 notified
me that P-1 had found a factor in Stage #1, and that the factor
was 9734174361238150513. This factors out to 3391 * 23279 *
65993 * 1868569, all of which are known factors of M113.
Again, is this the norm for P-1?
Eric
