This statement looks incomplete. You can write it "it should be positive integer " but is it required to be mentioned? Coz input is array of uint8_t so assumption is it will be positive.

Actually by this we meant that there is no constraint  (if should be prime, co-prime, semi-prime, multi-prime, less than... etc),
But yes this is only informational and probably could even be omitted
