6. Write an algorithm for checking whether given number is prime or not.
Ans:
Step 1: Start
Step 2: Declare variables n,i,flag.
Step 3: Initialize variables
flag←1
i←2
Step 4: Read n from user.
Step 5: Repeat the steps until i<(n/2)
5.1 If remainder of n÷i equals 0 then
flag←0
Go to step 6
5.2 i←i+1
Step 6: If flag=0 then
Display n is not prime
else
Display n is prime
