Article needs improvement

This is just to say that a lot of work seems to be necessary here. Lots of stuff with little rhyme or reason, like the sectioning of the article; the subsection called "example" is hard to decipher, one wonders what this is an example of. Marc van Leeuwen (talk) 14:33, 18 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

The article lacks a clear purpose. Cantor-Zassenhaus is given here even though it has its own wiki page, while recent algorithms with subquadratric complexity are not even mentioned. I propose deleting large portions, and reduce the article to a list of references to other places.MvH. —Preceding undated comment added 02:20, 8 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Needs more Mathematical Methods and less computer algorithms

Most of the stuff here is talk of finding the factors algorithmically, but no sense of how to do so intuitively. Perhaps examples would help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.247.79.236 (talk) 17:30, 13 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
