-
-   Compute the prime factorization of an integer ``n``\ . Returns a dictionary. The keys of the dictionary correspond to the factors, and hence are of the same type as ``n``\ . The value associated with each key indicates the number of times the factor appears in the factorization.

-.. function:: isprime(x::BigInt, [reps = 25]) -> Bool
-
-   .. Docstring generated from Julia source
-
-   Probabilistic primality test. Returns ``true`` if ``x`` is prime; and ``false`` if ``x`` is not prime with high probability. The false positive rate is about ``0.25^reps``\ . ``reps = 25`` is considered safe for cryptographic applications (Knuth, Seminumerical Algorithms).

-
-   .. Docstring generated from Julia source
-
-   Returns a prime sieve, as a ``BitArray``\ , of the positive integers (from ``lo``\ , if specified) up to ``hi``\ . Useful when working with either primes or composite numbers.
