Hi!
I'd like to know why 1 is not classified as being a prime number, and how to really turn this fact down.
-I already have an esquisse in large part (although brief in text) of my reasoning, but would like to keep an open question as the title, in a first time, before exposing my concordant arguments, to avoid the phenomenon [I only agree/I only disagree].
Thank to those who will expose their angle of view.
-For consistency and coherence purpose, let's first give the definition of a prime number (I think to have it, but want be guaranteed that we have the same).
Thanks!
Write you later.
