printing prime numbers. code example

Example: generate all prime number less than n java

/**
Author: Jeffrey Huang
As far as I know this is almost the fastest method in java
for generating prime numbers less than n.
A way to make it faster would be to implement Math.sqrt(i)
instead of i/2.

I don't know if you could implement sieve of eratosthenes in 
this, but if you could, then it would be even faster.

If you have any improvements please email me at

import java.util.*;
 
public class Primecounter {

      //int i =0;
      int num =0;
      //Empty String
      String  primeNumbers = "";
      boolean isPrime = true;
      System.out.print("Enter the value of n: ");
      System.out.println();
      int n = scanner.nextInt();

      for (int i = 2; i < n; i++) {
         isPrime = true;
         for (int j = 2; j <= i/2; j++) {
            if (i%j == 0) {
               isPrime = false; 
            }
         }
         if (isPrime)
         System.out.print(" " + i);
      }	

    }
