Problems with functions - Why is the output not only a List of Prime numbers?

Question

def isPrime(n):
if n <= 1:
exit

for i in range(2, n):
if n %i == 0:
exit

print(n)
return

for x in range(11):
isPrime(x)

Why is the output not only a List of Prime numbers? Can someone explain my fault?
Thank you, guys!

Answer 1

You should not use exit. You should use return

Answer 2

No problem! :) And if you do what Ariela said it works as well and it goes through the loop about half as many times... Take a look at this code.

Answer 3

First of all, I’m pretty sure you can do n/2 to optimize it
Other than it should work

Answer 4

Oh I meant n/2+1 because range is exclusive for the second value

Answer 5

Thx for the improvement, but if i run the Code, i get the range(11) aus a result

Answer 6

Thanks
