Primality Test and Integer Factorization

Given an infinite list of prime numbers, we can implement primality tests and integer factorization:

  -- isPrime n = n > 1 && n == head (primeFactors n)
  isPrime n = n > 1 &&
              foldr (\p r -> p*p > n || n `rem` p /= 0 && r)
                True primes

  primeFactors 1 = []
  primeFactors n = go n primes
     where
     go n ps@(p:pt)
        | p*p > n        = [n]
        | n `rem` p == 0 = p : go (n `quot` p) ps
        | otherwise      = go n pt

            | otherwise = f (k+1) q
            where (q,r) = quotRem m 2
