<p><font size=+1><b>DESCRIPTION     </b></font><br>

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

    <i>Factor</i> prints <i>number</i> and its prime factors, each repeated the
    proper number of times. The number must be positive and less than
    254 (about 1.8&#215;1016). 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    If no <i>number</i> is given, <i>factor</i> reads a stream of numbers from the
    standard input and factors them. It exits on any input not a positive
    integer. Maximum running time is proportional to <i>-/n </i>.

    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    <i>Primes</i> prints the prime numbers ranging from <i>start</i> to <i>finish</i>,
    where <i>start</i> and <i>finish</i> are positive numbers less than 256. If
    <i>finish</i> is missing, <i>primes</i> prints without end; if <i>start</i> is missing,
    it reads the starting number from the standard input.<br>
