#primenumber #givennumberprimeornot CHECK THE GIVEN NUMBER IS PRIME OR N...



Problem Description
This program takes a number and checks whether a given number is prime or not.

Problem Solution
1. Take a number as input.
2. Check if the number is divisible by any of the natural numbers starting from 2.
3. If it is, then it is not a prime number. Otherwise it is a prime number.
4. Exit.

Program/Source Code
Here is source code of the C program to check if a given number is prime. The C program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

/*
* C program to check whether a given number is prime or not
* and output the given number with suitable message.
*/
#include
#include

void main()
{
int num, j, flag;

printf("Enter a number \n");
scanf("%d", &num);

if (num <= 1)
{
printf("%d is not a prime numbers \n", num);
exit(1);
}
flag = 0;
for (j = 2; j <= num / 2; j++)
{
if ((num % j) == 0)
{
flag = 1;
break;
}
}
if (flag == 0)
printf("%d is a prime number \n", num);
else
printf("%d is not a prime number \n", num);
}
Program Explanation
1. Take a number as input and store it in the variable num.
2. If the number is lesser than or equal to 1, then print the output as ” It is not a prime number”.
3. Initialize the variable flag to zero.
4. Using for loop, check if the input number is divisible by any of the natural numbers starting from 2.
5. If it is, then assign the variable flag with 1.
6. Print the output as “It is a prime number”, if the variable flag ==0.
7. Otherwise print the output as “It is not a prime number” and exit.

Runtime Test Cases

Enter a number
23
23 is a prime number


Enter a number
15
15 is not a prime number

In a new programming language how can store multiple types of data in a single variable OR is it possible how can store multiple types of data in a single variable in programming langauge

In a new programming language how can store multiple types of data in a single variable  OR is it possible how can store multiple types of data in a single variable in a programming language Here In a new programming language how can store multiple types of  data in a single variable   help you make the new  concepts, you are learning a programming  Languages really very important: Ideally Yes. If you create an Array of objects. Then it's possible to store any data type with it as an object is the base class. ArrayList can hold multiple types of data, but array doesn't. Variables Variables can be thought of as ‘containers’ for data. Each variable has to  have a unique name, so that you can refer back to it in the program. By using variables, we can refer to values that have not yet been defined.  For example, we can refer to the speed of the ball in different parts of the  game code, but calculate the ball speed later based on different input...
