Math::NumSeq::AllPrimeFactors -- prime factors of the integers
use Math::NumSeq::AllPrimeFactors; my $seq = Math::NumSeq::AllPrimeFactors->new; my ($i, $value) = $seq->next;
This is a list of the prime factors of the integers 2, 3, 4, etc
# starting i=1 2, 3, 2, 2, 5, 2, 3, 7, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 2, 5, 11, ... \--/ \--/ \-----/ \--/ \--/ 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
The optional order parameter (a string) can control the order of the primes within each integer,
order
"ascending" the default "descending"
For example desending rearranges the values to
# order => "descending" 2, 3, 2, 2, 5, 3, 2, 7, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 5, 2, 11, ... \--/ \--/ \-----/ \--/ \--/ 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
The first difference is 3,2 for 6.
Option multiplicity => "distinct" can give just one copy of each prime factor.
multiplicity => "distinct"
# multiplicity => "distinct" 2, 3, 2, 5, 2, 3, 7, 2, 3, 2, 5, 11, ... \--/ \--/ 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Option on_values can give the prime factors of just some integers,
on_values
"all" the default "composites" the non-primes from 4 onwards "odd" odd integers 3 onwards "even" even integers 2 onwards
"odd" is not simply a matter of filtering out 2s from the sequence, since it takes the other primes from the even integers too, such as the 3 from 6.
# on_values => "odd" 3, 5, 7, 3, 3, 11, 13, 3, 5, 17, \--/ \--/ 9 15
See "FUNCTIONS" in Math::NumSeq for behaviour common to all sequence classes.
$seq = Math::NumSeq::AllPrimeFactors->new ()
$seq = Math::NumSeq::AllPrimeFactors->new (order => $str, multiplicity => $str, on_values => $str)
Create and return a new sequence object.
$bool = $seq->pred($value)
Return true if $value occurs in the sequence. This simply means $value a prime, or for on_values=>'odd' an odd prime.
$value
on_values=>'odd'
