Modify your PHP web service, factors.php to return the prime factors of a
provided number in JSON format. For example, the request factors.php?n=264 would return:
{"number": 264, "factors": [2, 2, 2, 3, 11]}
You can try out the service here.
header('Content-type: application/json');
if (!isset($_GET['n'])) {
header('HTTP/1.1 400 Invalid Request');
print "Please provide a parameter n.";
} else {
$n = $_GET["n"];
$ret = array(
"number" => $n,
"factors" => factorize($n),
);
print json_encode($ret);
}
