⨸ — Factor

Keys: Alt-o u. Ranks: 0 monadic, 0 0 dyadic

⨸N: sorted prime factors, with multiplicity. J’s q: family. Positive integral input; exact integer results.

Inverse: product. K⨸N selects exponents or a factor table.

K Result
Nonnegative integer Exponents of the first K primes; remaining factors are omitted
∞ Exponents through the largest factor
Negative integer Last \|K distinct factors and their exponents, in two rows
