The concept of prime numbers serves as a method to delineate the number line without leaving any voids. Primes can be regarded as the fundamental building blocks of all numbers. The security of certain cryptographic algorithms, such as RSA, relies on the difficulty of factoring the product of two large prime numbers back into their original primes.
