A Weil divisor on a Noetherian integral scheme is a finite integer combination of integral codimension-one closed subschemes.
A prime Weil divisor is one integral codimension-one closed subscheme. At its generic point, regularity in codimension one supplies a discrete valuation and hence an order of vanishing.
The divisor class group is the group of Weil divisors modulo principal divisors of rational functions.
