How this program works: i have to input a number and this program will calculate if it is a prime number or not (i know that it is a bad algorithm but i only need to learn pthread).
The problem is that the returned values are too much big.
For example if i write "12" the value of tmp tmp_1 tmp_2
into the main are 12590412 6295204 6295208
.
Why i got those numbers??
