    if it is not a prime, can any one give me the factors.

    Octave is pretty good at this sort of thing, and is open source:
    octave:1> format long
    octave:2> factor(1466996987)
    ans =
    
            29        43   1176421
    octave:3> factor(1466997001)
    ans =  1466997001
    

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.
