Script question

Question

Does anyone have ideas on how to write a python script that finds and prints out prime numbers that reach 1 billion ??? Also these have to be within an array as well.

i have a relevent idea but i cant seem to get primes that high of a number.

Answer 1

Well first of all you have to create a program which finds prime numbers.
then you must insert each prime to an array. that's a pretty simple test.
The thing is that finding such large numbers are difficult to computers since they have to do many calculations.
My code for that is this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
primes =[1,3,5]
num = int(input("Enter last number of range "))
def FindPrimes(n):
for x in range(1,n,2):
for i in range(3,int(x/2)+1,2):
if(x%i==0):
break
if(i>=int(x/2)-1):
primes.append(x)
break
def printArr(arr):
for x in range(len(arr)-1):
print(arr[x],end=" ,")
print(arr[len(arr)-1])
print("Prime numbers are:")
FindPrimes(num)
printArr(primes)

Answer 2

You can define the last number of the range. the greater number you enter the more numbers you'll find

Answer 3

This is finding the largest set of prime numbers ????
