Factors of Numbers

Abstract

THE processes given by Mr. Busk at p. 413 of NATURE are an interesting step towards the practical solution of the difficult problem of finding the factors of any number. In this article the processes are put in an algebraic form, which both shows more clearly the nature of the processes, and brings out the conditions necessary for their practical success (i.e. with any moderate labour): it will appear that with high numbers the labour involved would be prohibitory except in1 favourable cases.
