Write a Python function isPrime (number) that determines if the integer argument number is prime or not. The function will return a boolean True or False. Next, write a function HowManyPrimes (P), that takes an integer P as argument and returns the number of prime numbers whose value is less than P. And then write a function HighestPrime (K) that takes integer K as an argument and returns the highest prime that is less than or equal to K.

def test_prime (n):

if (n==1):

return False

elif (n==2):

return True;

else:

for x in range (2, n):

if (n % x==0):

return False

return True

print (test_prime (9))
