OK. The five prime factors are needed if you want to multiply 5
numbers and get 358358, except that you can possibly add zeros and
358358 itself? /Erling

Language differences?
Personally, I tend to be rather careless, using the terms “factor”
and “divisor” for the same thing, when “divisor” is perhaps to be
preferred. However, Pari GP provides a library function “factor” to
deliver the prime factorisation of its argument, in a similar
fashion to J’s q: .
So, strictly speaking, perhaps, the factors of 358358 are 2 7 11 13
179 and its divisors are 1 2 7 11 13 14 22 etc...
You’re both right!

Hi all!
Raul:
"Hmm... actually, thinking about it, the par approach here is not
efficient enough for this example. 5 parRuskeyE 32 is too big of a
result, I think. (358358 has 5 distinct prime factors and, thus, 32
integer factors.)"
However there are only 5 integer factors:
q: 358358
2 7 11 13 179
*/q:358358
358358
Now you ask me for 44 5 integer factorizations.
As far as I understand there is only one 5 integer factorization of
358358 unless you count 1 and 358358 as factors.
In any case it can be handled by parRuskeyE.
Cheers,

I'm not sure where you showed the 44 different 5 integer
