By listing the first six prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13, we can see that the 6th prime is 13.
What is the 10 001st prime number?
class Program { private static List<long> primes = new List<long>(10000000); static void Main(string[] args) { primes.Add(2); for (int i = 0; primes.Count < 10001; i++) { NextPrime(); } Console.WriteLine(primes.Last()); } private static long NextPrime() { long last = primes.Last(); long n = last + 1; while (true) { foreach (var item in primes) { if (n % item == 0) { goto LoopOut; } } primes.Add(n); return n; LoopOut: n++; } } }
