@Deadly Robin : You just can't divide a number by 0, it throws an arithmeticException! You could modify your code like this : for(x=1;x<=l;x=x+1) {if(l%x==0) {b=b+1; } } if(b==2) System.out.println("prime no"); else System.out.println("not a prime no.");

You have to listen to what @luka said. Please post your code! It may happen when you try to paste your code copied from a source elsewhere (most probably StackOverflow). Better write it.

are you using the length of a string to see if its equals that of a prime number?

i come across complications alot with arrays and it can be as simple as a missing one of these "," ";" or somtimes it can be due to compiling diffrent types. to be truely sure you would have to show us your code so we can to debug it
