simple prime number program in python code example

Example 1: determine if number is prime python

# Time Efficient Primality Check in Python

def primeCheck(n):
    # 0, 1, even numbers greater than 2 are NOT PRIME
    if n==1 or n==0 or (n % 2 == 0 and n > 2):
        return "Not prime"
    else:
        # Not prime if divisable by another number less
        # or equal to the square root of itself.
        # n**(1/2) returns square root of n
        for i in range(3, int(n**(1/2))+1, 2):
            if n%i == 0:
                return "Not prime"
        return "Prime"

Example 2: prime number in python

def prime(num):
    if num>1:
        s=int(num/2)
        for i in range(2,s+1):
            if num%i==0:
                return("not prime")
                break
        return("prime")
print(prime(239))
