This is an algorithmic question, not a python question, so the answer is to write out the steps you would follow to determine that a number is prime, and then write that code. Note also that when searching for factors of a number n, and starting at 2, you can generally stop at somewhere around n/3, as the only possible factor of n greater than n/2 is n, and 2 is probably the first value you tested. This can speed things up. -- Denis McMahon, denismfmcma...@gmail.com -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
