Largest Prime Factor Problem Statement
You are given a positive integer n
. Your task is to identify the largest prime factor of this given positive integer.
If there is no prime factor for a given integer, output -1
.
Input:
The first line of input contains an integer T
representing the number of test cases. The subsequent T
lines each contain a positive integer n
.
Output:
For each test case, output the largest prime factor of the given positive integer, on a separate line.
Example:
Input:
2
10
17
Output:
5
17
Explanation:
- For n = 10, the prime factors are 2 and 5, thus largest is 5.
- For n = 17, since 17 is a prime number itself, 17 is the largest prime factor.
Constraints:
1 ≤ T ≤ 50
1 ≤ n ≤ 10^9
