Appendix A: Functions and Instructions

For the
AUTO
setting of the
Exact/Approx
mode,
including
var
permits approximation with floating-
point coefficients where irrational coefficients
cannot be explicitly expressed concisely in terms
of the built-in functions. Even when there is only
one variable, including
var
might yield more
complete factorization.
Note:
See also
comDenom()
for a fast way to
achieve partial factoring when
factor()
is not
fast enough or if it exhausts memory.
Note:
See also
cFactor()
for factoring all the
way to complex coefficients in pursuit of linear
factors.

factor(
rationalNumber
)
returns the rational
number factored into primes. For composite
numbers, the computing time grows
exponentially with the number of digits in the
second-largest factor. For example, factoring a
30-digit integer could take more than a day, and
factoring a 100-digit number could take more
than a century.
Note:
To stop (break) a computation, press
´
.
If you merely want to determine if a number is
prime, use
isPrime()
instead. It is much faster,
particularly if
rationalNumber
is not prime and if
the second-largest factor has more than five
digits.
