"Factor This" in python

Ah the speed for the first 101 non-Mersenne Primes where 2^p-1 when p is the inputted number.

For under 101 when I typed in 67 it took the longest with this output:

Enter a prime number: 67
193707721
93.221183 seconds

Yet most numbers would come back like this:
Enter a prime number: 1741
1002817
1.8384916000000002 seconds

Remember its 2^1741-1 so its a very large number that's is some speed eh hoser.

In some cases this App does work exceptionally well for larger number too. However, if you are going to search for 8 digit numbers derived from a prime number that's unknown to be a Mersenne Prime you may need to wait. Also you should change the range if you are going for very large numbers like 8 digit primes. Reply back and I can edit the code for you if you want to wait longer for the big factors. This current code as is returns factors from 9 digits long under 1.3 billion in size.

It is written solely in python:

So download python 3.7 and run this program:

I can turn this into an exe if anyone is interested just reply and ask cheers Happy Halloween find some scary factors k.

Code:
import timeit

print('''This application finds factors of numbers that are 2^p-1.
If the number has factors they are not Mersenne Primes,
when p (i.e. p is for prime) is the number you entered!
For most factors this program finds them
under 1.3 billion, only 9 digits. This is
for speed purposes. If you try large numbers you will wait for
no reason so change the range if you like waiting ''')
