This is not the complete story. The Mathematician: Theorem: Every odd number >1 is prime. Proof: 3 is prime, 5 is prime, 7 is prime. The theorem is demonstrated by induction. The Physicist: 3 is prime, 5 is prime, 7 is prime, 9 (experimental error), 11 is prime, 13 is prime. The Engineer: 3 is prime, 5 is prime, 7 is prime, 9 is prime, ... BTW, 1 is rarely considered a prime number. Furthermore: I say that it is not a prime number! Please argue against this. Please do it. Really. We need to shift this thread to an off-topic realm in order to shut it down. -- Oscar
