C# - Check and Print Prime Numbers

---

I have given here the source code in C# Console Application for generating the prime numbers. The logic for prime number is quite simple.

 

Take any number, say N and iterate the loop through N/2 from 2. If any one of the number is divisble with 0 remainder, then it is not a prime number and then exit from the loop.

 

The variable bPrime is used to store and return whether the given number is a prime number or not.

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Text;

 

namespace SoftwareAndFinance

{

    class Math

    {

 

        static bool IsPrimeNumber(int num)

        {

            bool bPrime = true;

            int factor = num / 2;

 

            int i = 0;

 

            for (i = 2; i <= factor; i++)

            {

                if ((num % i) == 0)

                    bPrime = false;

            }

            return bPrime;

        }

 

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

           

            Console.WriteLine("List of prime numbers between 0 - 1000");

            for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++)

            {

                if (IsPrimeNumber(i) == true)

                    Console.Write("{0,8:n}\t", i);

            }

            Console.WriteLine();

        }

    }

}
