EXAMPLE

166055401586083681=7^2*17^10*41^2, 166055401586083680=2^5*3^3*5*11^3*23*43*59*67*83*89 This number appears twice because there is no pair of numbers with max. factor = 97 that is larger than this number (through 2^62 anyway).

PROGRAM

Program in C written by R. Gerbicz and modified by Fred Schneider.
