isPrime(
number

Boolean constant expression
Returns true or false to indicate if
number
is a
whole number 2 that is evenly divisible only by
itself and 1.
If
number
exceeds about 306 digits and has no
factors 1021,
isPrime(
number
) displays an
error message.
If you merely want to determine if
number
is
prime, use
isPrime() instead of factor(). It is
much faster, particularly if
number
is not prime
and has a second-largest factor that exceeds
about five digits.
