        !            12: number less than 2^56 (about 7.2E16), it will repeat the number
        !            13: back at you and then its prime factors each one printed
        !            14: the proper number of times.  Then it says "Enter:" again.

        !            18: when n is prime.  It takes 1 minute to factor a prime near 10^13.
