When I run the code it just gets stuck on the input. I have tried everything but it doesn’t give me an error unless I press CTRL + C then it will tell me Traceback…..
>Solution :
the line k = k + 1 in the function printNum was out of the while loop , making it an infinite loop,same goes for i = i + 1 in isPrime and j = j + 1 in the last loop, so i fixed it for you
additionally, the function isPrime had some bugs
it referred to number instead of y in a few places so I fixed that too
this should do the trick:
primeNum = []
number=10
def isPrime(y):
i = 2
while (i < y):
if y % i == 0:
return False
i = i + 1
return True
def printNum(x):
k = 2
while k <= x:
if isPrime(k):
primeNum.append(k)
k = k + 1
printNum(number)
numOfPrime = len(primeNum)
sum = 0
j = 0
while j < numOfPrime:
sum += primeNum[j]
j = j + 1
print(sum)
print("end")
