Hi Everyone, Am Dru by name. I need help on how to write a program that detects if a number is a PRIME NUMBER using Visual-Basic. Please make sure you've debugged successfully before posting any programs. Thanks.

I dnt do vb, bt this shouldnt be an issue at all, first what are prime numbers? With the definition, u can deduce the following algorithm;

to check whether numbers from an input source say an array name NumBer_s is a prime number you simply say (java example):

for(int n=0;i<NumBer_s.length;i++ )
{for(int i=2;i<NumBer_s[n];i++){
if(NumBer_s[n]%i != 0)
{System.out.println(NumBer_s[n] + "is prime";}
}

use this algo for ur vb solution!

Maybe a trip to www.homeandlearn.co.uk/NET/vbNet.html might be of help..

Thanks everyone, just completed it and its working perfectly.Thanks once again.
