factor

dear all,

i am simulating my crypto scheme in python, i am a new user to it.

p = 512 bit number and i need to calculate largest prime factor for it, i am looking for two things:

Fastest code to process this large prime factorization
Code that can take 512 bit of number as input and can handle it.

I have seen different implementations in other languages, my whole code is in python and this is last point where i am stuck. So let me know if there is any implementation in python.

Kindly explain in simple as i am new user to python

sorry for bad english.
