Given a positive integer n, greater than 1, 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.)

Question

Given a positive integer n, greater than 1, 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.)

Additional Notes: n should not be modified

(The solution to this problem has to be in the Python programming language!)

Answer 1

import sys

import numpy as np

# Return True if n is a prime and False otherwise

def prime(n):

for m in range(2, int(np.sqrt(n))):

if (n % m) == 0:

return False

return True

is_prime = prime(int(sys.argv[1]))

print(is_prime)
