This code is highly inefficient for a reason. This algorithm is more of a proof of concept that if a prime was a heritable trait, it would not be a desired one. </p> <p>Parameters:</p> <p>isPrime --> n: number to check if it is prime allPrimes --> n: size of list of random primes, m: the primes in the list will be between 0 and m</p>

Revision 3. </p> <p>This module returns all the prime numbers strictly less than n. For this code to print out all of the primes n inclusive, in the range, n+1 must be substituted for n.</p>
