// <summary> This class generates composite numbers </summary>
// <use visibility=export>
 
// <synopsis>
// This class generates a list of composite numbers made up
// of powers of 2, 3, and 5, which are less than
// some max value and returns the smallest composite number greater
// than some number given.
// </synopsis>
 
// <example>
// <srcblock>
// CompositeNumber cn(1000);
// Int n = cn.nextLarger(319);
// Int m = cn.nextSmaller(462);
// Int l = cn.nearest(462);
// </srcblock>
// </example>
