Answer / naman patidar
we can reduce no of iterations by changing the condition
(i<=n/2) with (i<=sqrt(n))..
This is a rule that if a number is not dividable by any no
(except 1)less than equal to the sqr root of it then the no
is prime.
int n ; // any no, user input.
int i ;
for(i=2; i<=sqrt(n); i++ )
{
if(n%i==0)
{
printf("not prime");
break;
}
}
if(i > sqrt(n)) // you can use a flag as well here
{
printf("prime no");
}
