Inspiration
I'm relatively new to python programming, as I was brainstorming for a project, I came across a YouTube video on algorithm that works only with prime numbers, I thought I'd take my own spin for a code that calculates prime numbers.
What it does
This code calculates the number of prime numbers that exists up to the user's input number.
How I built it
Using only the default python library, I compiled this code using while loops and for loops, but through pattern recognition.
Challenges I ran into
I understood how prime numbers were calculated and determined but I did not know how to demonstrate it in my code.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I took a long approach into calculating the number of prime numbers by pattern matching and ended up outputting the right results. Within the timeframe, I am proud that I was able to see the pattern of the output values and was able to produce results through pattern recognition.
What I learned
If one approach to what you're looking for doesn't work, another approach that goes in another direction will eventually work.
What's next for Prime Numbers Calculator
