Has typos.

Says that 199^883467 is difficult to factorise. Well, all 883467 factors are shown already.

and the last few are:

That'd have roughly as many characters as a 338,000 word book... longer than The Brothers Karamazov (365,000) but shorter than Gone With The Wind (418,000).

Just over half the length of A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth, and probably just as entertaining. Heyooo!
