Hey guys so I need to make a program which asks the user to enter a number as a argument and then let them know if it is a prime number or 0 otherwise. So the code I have so far is as follows but I am a little confused on how to make it run through all the possible values of the and make sure that it isn't a non-prime number. Right now what happens is that the program opens, I enter a value and nothing happens. Note: I have math in the header as I am unsure if it is needed or not at this stage.
EDIT: SO I MADE THE CHANGES SUGGESTED AND ALSO ADDED A FOR LOOP HOWEVER WHEN I GO TO COMPILE MY PROGRAM I GET AN WARNING SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF 'CONTROL MAY REACH END OF NON-VOID FUNCTION'. HOWEVER THE PROGRAM DOES COMPILE WHEN I GO TO ENTER A NUMBER AND HIT ENTER IRRELEVANT OT WHETHER OR NOT IT IS A PRIME NUMBER I GET AN ERROR BACK SAYING 'FLOATING POINT EXCEPTION: 8'.
EDIT 2: THE FLOATING POINT ERROR HAS BEEN FIXED HOWEVER NOW THE PROGRAM SEEMS TO THINK THAT EVERY NUMBER IS NON - PRIME AND OUTPUTS IT THIS WAY. I CAN'T SEEM TO SEE WHY IT WOULD DO THIS. I AM ALSO STILL GETTING THE 'CONTROL MAY REACH END OF NON-VOID FUNCTION' WARNING
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int prime(int a){
int b;
for(b=1; b<=a; b++){
if (a%b==0)
return(0);
}
if(b==a){
return(1);
}
}
int main(void){
int c, answer;
printf("Please enter the number you would like to find is prime or not= ");
scanf("%d",&c);
answer = prime(c);
if(answer==1){
printf("%d is a prime number
",c);
}
else
printf("%d is not a prime number
",c);
}
