Maninder Singh Since multiplication is commutative, it is enough to check from 2 to sqrt(x) actually. It saves you a lot of "empty iterations" (and computation power) especially for really large numbers.

x=int(input()) d=[] for i in range(1,x): if(x==1): print('Not Prime') elif(x%i==0): d.append(i) if(len(d)>1): print('Not Prime') break if(len(d)==1): print('Prime')
