The prime factors of 13195 are 5, 7, 13 and 29.
What is the largest prime factor of the number 600851475143 ?
#don't forget 2,3,5,7. this function doesn't deliver those as output.
def is_prime(b): #checks a number greater than 7 to see if it is prime and
returns if is.
if b % 2 != 0 and b

For help on the math aspects try Wikipedia.
Look up Prime factors...
Would it be useful for me to buy a book, and if so what are some
easily accessible ones? I feel dive into python is just too
advanced for me.
Hi,
Got it. Thought it would be nice to share it. What set me on the wrong foot
completely was that writing gif files is not possible due to copyright issues.
Below is a very simple version of a conversion function for Group 4 Tif to png.
import wx, os, time
def g4TifToPng(tif, png = None):
Hi,
I'm learning Python so I can take advantage of the really cool stuff in the
Natural Language Toolkit. But I'm having problems with some basic file
manipulation stuff.
My basic question: How do I read data in from a csv, manipulate it, and then
add it back to the csv in new columns (keep

"Did you test the program? That is one way to tell whether it works perfectly.
What you showed above will do one visible thing - it will print "Don't forget
to consider primes 2, 3, 5, and 7\n". The rest is a somewhat confusing
collection of function definitions and comments. You never call the

I didn't call the functions in the program because I was
calling them myself in the interpreter after running it.
I assume you mean after importing it?
Running a program is generally taken to mean executing the script as
a standalone program. To execute the internal functions

Very inefficient. IMHO the proper way is to generate a list of all
the prime numbers
