I all of the other problems but I have issues with these: 1.Given a positive integer n , assign True to is_prime if n has no factors other than 1 and itself. (Remember, m is a factor of n if m divides n evenly.) 2.An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which the distance (or difference) between any two successive numbers if the same. This in the sequence 1, 3, 5, 7, ... , the distance is 2 while in the sequence 6, 12, 18, 24, ... , the distance is 6. Given the positive integer distance and the positive integer n , associate the variable sum with the sum of the elements of the arithmetic progression from 1 to n with distance distance . For example, if distance is 2 and n is 10 , then sum would be associated with 26 because 1+3+5+7+9 = 25 . Thanks in advance.
Please specify what programming language and OS you're using, what code you've tried so far, and what problems if any you're having. If you're using Python please give us the version, if not please try another mailing list.
