IsPrime

A simple program to determine wether a number is prime. It is not the optimal way to calculate if a number is prime.

The code in the Texas TI-84 might look like this:

: ClrHome

:

: Prompt X

:

: -1->Y

:

: For(I,2,√(X)+1)

:

: If fPart(X/I)=0.0

: Then

: I->Y

: Goto E

: End

:

: End

:

: Lbl E:

:

: If Y≠-1

: Then

: Disp X

: Disp "IS NOT PRIME"

: Disp "DIVIDABLE BY"

: Disp Y

: Else

: Disp X

: Disp "IS PRIME"

: End
