Just because this IS a number theory thread, I should point out that in most mathematic circles "whole numbers" consist of the positive integers (or the very similar "non negative integers" which also includes 0). So while whole numbers are indeed integers, an integer is not necessarily a whole number.

But in this particular case, we do happen to be dealing with only whole numbers.
