Dario Alejandro Alpern, Factorization using the Elliptic Curve Method.
EXAMPLE
If p=2, then the number of distinct prime factors of 2 is 1 since 2 is prime.
If p=3, then the number of distinct prime factors of 33 is 2.
If p=5, then the number of distinct prime factors of 5555 is 3.
If p=7, then the number of distinct prime factors of 777777 is 5.
