A polynomial is deemed prime or irreducible when it's impossible to break it down into polynomials of a lower degree that have coefficients within the same field. To ascertain whether a polynomial is prime, one must investigate its factors. Should the only factors be 1 and the polynomial itself, then it can be classified as prime.
