A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. So I guess you died on that hill

STress, I tried to post information about by 1 is not a prime number. The software in use to try to catch spammers caught my post. If you want to know why 1 isn't a prime, then please go to a search engine and type in "Scientific American" and "why isn't 1 a prime number" that will take you to the article.

There's been a lot of mathematical debate about whether or not 1 is prime (and a smaller amount of debate about whether or not 2 is prime, since some mathematicians thought even numbers shouldn't be prime). But the debate ended roughly 100 years ago. It was broadly agreed that 1 is not prime and 2 is, because several important theorems are written in terms of prime numbers and they are more easily worded if 2 is the first prime. If you wanted to include 1 as prime the theorems would have to be rewritten with awkward phrases like "For all primes except 1, ..."
