# --description--
|
||
|
||
A composite is a number containing at least two prime factors. For example, $15 = 3 × 5; 9 = 3 × 3; 12 = 2 × 2 × 3$.
|
||
|
||
There are ten composites below thirty containing precisely two, not necessarily distinct, prime factors: 4, 6, 9, 10, 14, 15, 21, 22, 25, 26.
|
||
|
||
How many composite integers, $n < {10}^8$, have precisely two, not necessarily distinct, prime factors?
|
||
|
||
# --hints--
|
||
|
||
`semiPrimes()` should return `17427258`.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
assert.strictEqual(euler187(), 17427258);
|
||
```
|

function semiPrimes() {

return true;

}

||
semiPrimes();
