What you are doing is printing the factors of a given number🤔

Youre getting the repetition from your first “for” loop. Think, each for loop it has to run through all the numbers, and there is no need for 2 loops. Simplify your loop to this, and give it a try. for i in range(2,num+1): if num % i == 0: print(i)

Thomas Williams, i agree. I did see at the top of the code it says “to print prime numbers”, but that code is missing a couple lines to acheive that. My answer would have been different if he asked why hes not getting primes. But, to answer why hes getting repetition with the code presented, is why i gave that answer:)

👍🏼the second for loop basically caused his code to repeat a number of times
