All prime numbers have only two factors whereas all composite numbers have more than two factors.
No. 29 in not any sort of number AFTER 29!

It depends what you regard as being "special". Once you define the criteria for "special" you can formulate an algorithm that determines whether or not a given number meets that criteria. For instance, if you regard prime numbers as being special, you need a predicate to test whether a given number is zero, prime or composite. If prime then it is indeed special, otherwise it isn't. A predicate is a function that returns true or false depending on its input(s). As a simple example, if we regard even numbers as being special, then we need to test if the number has the prime factor 2. If so, it is special, otherwise it is not. We can test this by dividing the number by 2 and testing the remainder. If the remainder is zero, the number is even and is therefore special. We use the modulo operator (%) to determine the remainder after integer division: bool is_even (int n) { return (n % 2) == 0; }
You have to make sure both the numerator and denominator are prime numbers, and if they aren't, then it's not in simplest form. Also, the denominator shouldn't be divisible by the numerator, which sort of falls in to the prime number category. Hope this helped. :) I'm really good with numbers. :)
Yes, that's how quick-sort works.
This is an invalid sort code. Sort codes are six numbers in this format: ##-##-##.
The number 18 belongs to the following categories of numbers: Complex Real Rational Terminating, non-rec curing decimals. Natural Composite Even Factors of 2 Factors of 9 Factors of 3
When you sort numbers from largest to smallest, or sort text from Z to A (in reverse alphabetical order).
The prime factors of 18 are 2, 3 and 3. The prime factors of 42 are 2, 3 and 7. Thus, the prime factors which are common to both are 2 and 3. However, the usual manner of answering this sort of question is to give the greatest common factor which is common to both (or all) numbers, and not only prime factors - so as 2 and 3 are common to both numbers and as 2 x 3 = 6 the 'other' answer to the question is 6.

They are all positive numbers.
They used olden numbers!
