Hmm... 1 is not a prime. See for instance
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_number
The definition given there is "In mathematics </wiki/Mathematics>, a
*prime number* (or a *prime*) is a natural number </wiki/Natural_number>
that has exactly two (distinct) natural number divisors
</wiki/Divisor>." The important part of the statement is "exactly
two...divisors", which rules out the number 1.
