Find All the Divisors for a Number

In some of my load testing, I want to run a certain number of transactions. My script takes parameters for a number of threads and the number of loops all the threads should go to. When I have a certain target number I want to get to, and an idea of what number of threads I want, I would like to figure out exactly how many loops I need to run for an exact number of threads.

For example, lets say I want to process 16,000,000 transactions with about 300 threads. I can run the following Java class, and figure out that if I use 320 threads, I need 50,000 loops.




Enter an integer: 16000000
