Prime Numbers python

Question

I\'m a beginning programmer in python and have a question about my code I\'m writing:

number = int(input(\"Enter a random number: \"))

for num in range(1, n         


        

Answer 1

I am assuming the random number is the range you want the numbers to be within.

I found that the variable i is always equal to 2 in your code.This destroys the purpose of having a second for loop

Prime numbers are numbers that cannot be divisible by 2, 3 or 7, excluding 2, 3 or 7!

With this knowledge I adapted your code to show the true prime numbers.

solution

number = int(input("Enter a random number: "))

for num in range(2,number +1) :
    printnum = True
    if num == 2:
        printnum = True
    elif num == 3:
        printnum = True
    elif num == 7:
        printnum = True
    elif num % 2 == 0:
        printnum = False
    elif num % 3 == 0:
        printnum = False
    elif num % 7 == 0:
        printnum = False

    if printnum == True:
        print(num)
