This is the following condition in order to get the specific output for this specific problem: if is_a_prime (n) : is_prime = True Now all you have to do is write is_a_prime ().

For the hard code for this problem:

if n = = 2:

is_prime = True

elif n % 2 = = 0:

is_prime = False

else:

is_prime = True

for m in range (3, int (n * 0.5) + 1, 2):

if n % m = = 0:

is_prime = False

break.

To add, a high-level programming language that is widely used for general-purpose programming, created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991 is called Python.
