I am needing to create a program that encrypts a set of input integers from the user. The program needs to ask the user for 2 integers, test the integers to see if they are prime, convert the integers to a private and public key and then output the keys. Can anyone help me with this or provide me a sample of some code as a helpful guide? Thanks!

There are open source encryption libraries out there, like Blowfish. You can freely integrate them into programs like that. Just read the manual.

Use the OpenSSL library. It has functions to perform all the most common encryption operations.
