Factor the following number



The number is simply too big to be factored by Maxima's algorithm.  You
might like to try other software with better support for computational
number theory, such as Pari/GP.  I suspect that the numbers in question
(from here <http://www.immortaltheory.com/NumberTheory/RuthAaron.htm>;) were
produced by a polynomial, so all you need to do is to solve the appropriate
polynomial f(x)=n, where n is the smaller of the two numbers.
