To find first N prime numbers in python
- by Rahul Tripathi
Hi All,
I am new to the programming world. I was just writing this code in python to generate N prime numbers. User should input the value for N which is the total number of prime numbers to print out. I have written this code but it doesn't throw the desired output. Instead it prints the prime numbers till the Nth number.
For eg.: User enters the value of N = 7.
Desired output: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 19
Actual output: 2, 3, 5, 7
Kindly advise.
i=1
x = int(input("Enter the number:"))
for k in range (1, (x+1), 1):
c=0
for j in range (1, (i+1), 1):
a = i%j
if (a==0):
c = c+1
if (c==2):
print (i)
else:
k = k-1
i=i+1
