# Semiprimes Service ## Introduction 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`. Let’s call such numbers *Semiprimes*. ## Task - Write a module which provides a function to tell whether a given number, `N`, is a semiprime. `N` will be less than 100,000 - Please implement an API (RESTful or GraphQL) to factor a given number into two prime numbers if it’s a semiprime, otherwise, return an error message. ## Stretch Goals - Handle the invalid inputs. - Support batch requests: i.e. users could provide 100 numbers, and the API return the answer for all. - Considering this module will be used by a long running service, could you optimize it to give answers faster? ## Usage To run the application you'll need to have `elixir` installed. Assuming `elixir` is already installed, consult the following steps to start the application: ```shell $ cd server $ mix deps.get $ iex -S mix ``` Now open a web browser and visit `http://localhost:8080`!
