Apparent aliqueit issue with specifying factors

[pakaran]

The good news is that I've, as far as I can tell, fully factored my current sequence term. The bad news is that I can't figure out how to get aliqueit to continue with two of the factors (I ran NFS manually on the "hardest" c96).

I've tried specifying factors manually on the command line:

nice ./aliqueit 419760 -y -f92059460617951 -f21717769813221145570247417 -f39135011959831215189436845933954537856395665964321673481596702363650857

However, this gives an error:

ERROR: bad/no number given after -f92059460617951

The last few lines of my sequence file (which I'm a bit worried I messed up in attempts at hand-editing) read:

632 .   6273364785062464005428439739293159611265325983413746564749224034687858239242770570191806604057428660201138295411316027664 = 2^4 * 31 * 571 * 631 * 3617 * 32251 * 669578369605822274410103530193 * 449428167743545088041657390246966041103429269255426338236799348731649241889

What am I missing?

I think the issue is no <space> after the "-f". Also, if the composite splits into two factors, you only really need to provide one of the factors.

BTW, welcome to the forum!

That worked, thanks. On to the next term.

And thank you! I'm having fun.
