Assignment Statement:

In mathematics Prime is a number which can be only divisible by 1 and itself. Examples of prime numbers are, 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , 31 etc. When these numbers get large, then it is very difficult to manually identify them as to be prime or not prime. For example the numbers like, 443 and 44371 cannot easily identify as Prime.
There may be many algorithms which can be written for the identification of a number to be prime or not prime.

Question No 01: (Marks: 10)
You are required to design (write) a simple algorithm (Only Pseudo code) which can identify a number to be Prime or Not Prime.

Question No 02: (Marks: 10)
You are required to calculate (Step by Step) the worst case time complexity T(n) of the algorithm designed in Question No. 01.

Question No 02: (Marks: 10)
You are required to calculate (Step by Step) the worst case time complexity T(n) of the algorithm designed in Question No. 01.

Solution:
Question No. 02: The step by stem analysis of the algorithm designed in question 1 is as follow,

The time taken by each statement (step) is given as follows,

Step 1: C1 // Execute only 1 time or Constant Time or O (1)
Step 2: C2 // Execute only 1 time or Constant Time or O (1)
Step 3: n -2 // Execute n -2 times
Step 4: n -2 // Execute n -2 times
Step 5: n – 2 // Execute n -2 times
Step 6: C3 // Execute only 1 time or Constant Time or O (1)
Step 7: C4 // Execute only 1 time or Constant Time or O (1)
Step 8: C5 // Execute only 1 time or Constant Time or O (1)
Step 9: C6 // Execute only 1 time or Constant Time or O (1)

Total time T(n) can be calculated as follows,

T(n) = C1 + C2 + (n -2 ) + (n -2 ) + (n -2 ) + C3 + C4 + C5 + C6
T(n) = C1 + C2 + n -2 + n -2 + n -2 + C3 + C4 + C5 + C6
T(n) = C1 + C2 + n + n + n - 6 + C3 + C4 + C5 + C6
T(n) = 3n + C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + C5 + C6 -6
T(n) = 3n + (C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + C5 + C6 -6)
T(n) = 3n + C7 // C7 = (C1 + C2 + C3 + C4 + C5 + C6 -6)
T(n) = n // Ignoring constant terms

Or T(n) = O (n )

Question No 01: (Marks: 10)
You are required to design (write) a simple algorithm (Only Pseudo code) which can identify a number to be Prime or Not Prime.

Solution:
Question No. 01: The algorithm for the identification of Prime number is as follows,

1 PRIME (int Number)
2 int Count ← 0
3 for i ← 2 to Number – 1
4 if ( Number % i equal to 0)
5 Increment Count
6 If (Count is equal to 0)
7 Number is Prime
8 else
9 Number is NOT Prime
