Two is not a composite number. Its only factors are 1 and 2. By definition, a prime number is a number that has only two factors: 1 and itself. 2 is a prime number.

Two is not a composite number; it is a Prime number. A composite number is a positive integer greater than 1 that has more than two distinct positive divisors. However, two only has two divisors, which are 1 and 2.
