 Prime Number

• A prime number is a whole number greater

than 1 whose only factors are 1 and itself. That
is if N is prime number then N is only divisible
by 1 and N itself.
• For example, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 are prime numbers
where as 4, 10, 100, 99 are non prime
numbers.

 Trial and Error Method
Question : Is 9 prime ?

2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

9%2 9%3

9 is divisible by 3, so 9 is non prime.

 Trial and Error Method
Question : Is 11 prime ?

2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

11 % 2 11 % 3 11 % 4 11 % 5 11 % 6 11 % 7 11 % 8 11 % 9 11%10

11 is not divisible by any of them. So, 11 is a

prime number.

 The Sieve of Eratosthenes
• We need to generate prime numbers upto 30.
• Square Root of √30 = 5.48

 Growth of function
Big-Oh: gives an upper bound on the growth
rate of a function.
Insertion sort is O(n2) in the worst case
This means that in the worst case it performs at most
c.n2 operations, where c is constant.
Omega: asymptotic lower bound.
Theta: asymptotic tight bound
