A composite is a number containing at least two prime factors. For example, 15 = 3 × 5; 9 = 3 × 3; 12 = 2 × 2 × 3.
There are ten composites below thirty containing precisely two, not necessarily distinct, prime factors: 4, 6, 9, 10, 14, 15, 21, 22, 25, 26.
How many composite integers, n < 10^(8), have precisely two, not necessarily distinct, prime factors?
library(gmp)
bign <- 10^8
n <- 1:floor((bign -1)/2)
p=1:10000
p = p[as.logical(isprime(p))]
for (i in p) {
n <- n[as.logical(n %% i)]
}
idx <- as.logical(isprime(n))
allp <- c(p,n[idx])
count <- 0
for (i in allp[allp < sqrt(bign)]) {
count <- count + length(allp[allp < bign/i])
allp = allp[-1]
}
print(count)
