Wrong.

Find one number that can divide 1 that isn't 1.

Again, no one cares that 1 is indivisible. That's not what the mechanic is asking for.

The boss literally says "calibrate vitals to primes" which means it's asking for prime numbers. Which 1 isn't.

I can see that you aren't willing to just admit that you couldn't read and follow a one-line text box directive on the screen and would rather make another "November/Winter" spectacle out of yourself though, so I'm out.

Obvious trolling aside, the whole debate on whether or not 1 is a prime is pretty interesting.

If you want to understand why 1 isn't considered a prime number, you can easily look into it.
The TL;DR is that 1 breaks the fundamental theorem of arithmetic and 1 would specifically have to be excluded. Mathematicians have debated 1 as a prime for centuries, came to the conclusion it is not, and 1 is more or less considered the foundation to counting instead.

1 Is not a prime number

Why? I don't know the exact reason.
Apparently because 1 is a unit and not a number.
Or because a prime number needs to have exactly 2 divisors (itself and 1) which is not the case for 1.

Wait... Oh no it's a bait.

I can see that you're going to make this as ridiculous as the whole November/Winter thing though, so I'm out.

It literally says "Indivisible" and 1 is a prime number because it's indivisible.

Next thing you know someone is going to come into this thread and tell me 1 is not an odd number.

I stopped reading when it said "Most early Greeks did not even consider 1 to be a number". Who cares if people 2000 years ago didn't think 1 is a prime number?? It is a prime number today.

Thanks for the content.

I can see the people who spend their entire day reading the dictionary and Wikipedia are out in full force again today. This bug is never going to be fixed because people are even debating something obvious like 1 being indivisible.

Reading the dictionary and Wikipedia has not taught you any common sense. Go find a number other than 1 that divides 1.

I agree, math is hard man.

Titanmen comes in many forms. I'll just go back to petting my cat though. Still another 5 months to go.
