What is a prime number?

Prime numbers or primes are natural numbers greater than 1 that are only divisible by 1 and with itself. The number of primes is infinite. Natural numbers bigger than 1 that are not prime numbers are called composite numbers. Primes can thus be considered the basic building blocks of the natural numbers. There are infinitely many primes, as demonstrated by Euclid around 300 BC. The property of being prime (or not) is called primality.
In number theory, the prime number theorem describes the asymptotic distribution of the prime numbers among the positive integers. It formalizes the intuitive idea that primes become less common as they become larger.
Primes are used in several routines in information technology, such as public-key cryptography, which makes use of properties such as the difficulty of factoring large numbers into their prime factors.
