作为使用Python的第一个练习,我试图使用循环来编写一个程序来查找素数。所有的东西都和for循环一起工作,所以我尝试使用while循环。这是可行的,但程序返回一些错误的数字。import math
# looking for all primes below this number
max_num = int(input("max number?: "))
primes = [2] # start with 2
test_num = 3 # which means testing starts with 3
while test_num < max_num:
i = 0
# It's only necessary to check with the primes smaller than the square
# root of the test_num
while primes[i] < math.sqrt(test_num):
# using modulo to figure out if test_num is prime or not
if (test_num % primes[i]) == 0:
test_num += 1
break
else:
i += 1
else:
primes.append(test_num)
test_num += 1
print(primes)
奇怪的是,对于max_num=100,它返回:[2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 25, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 49, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97]
这是正确的,除了9,25和49,我不知道为什么。
