A number divisible only by 1 and itself is considered a prime number. 1 seems to conform to the definition; it is divisible by 1 and itself and by no other number. But the definition of prime numbers excludes 1. Why?
Many people think it's because, in the case of 1, 1 and itself are the same number. But this is far from the truth.
