Write a program to print out the first n primes.

Question

Krishna Mittal · Accepted Answer

Can you explain your logic?
I tried your program in C++, and it even prints 21 and 27 as prime numbers.
This is my code, where fmod is a function that calculated the modulus result of 2 decimals (double).
int main(){
    int n;
    cin>>n;
      if(n==0){
         return 0;
      }
      if(n>=1){
         cout1){
             if(fmod(x,sqrt(x))!=0){
             cout<

The key in generic questions like this, is to make sure to cover the fundamentals. There's usually a back-and-forth with the interviewer.
      

Might be worth doing a mock interview with one of the Microsoft  Program Manager Intern experts on Prepfully? Really helps to get some real-world practice and guidance.

public static void printNPrimes(int n){
      if(n==0){
         return;
      }
      if(n>1){
         System.out.println(2);
         int x=3;
         while(n>0){
             if(x%Math.sqrt(x)!=0){
             System.out.println(x);
             }
             x=x+2;
             n--;
          }
      }
   }

Fixed.

  public static void printNPrimes(int n){
      if(n==0){
         return;
      }
      if(n>=1){
         System.out.println(2);
         int x=3;
         while(n>1){
             if(x%Math.sqrt(x)!=0){
             System.out.println(x);
             }
             x=x+2;
             n--;
          }
      }
   }
