| range function second parameter is excluded. Hence for x in range(2, n): will not execute when n = 2, and "2 is a prime number" will never appear. Moreover, might need a break in the else block too. | ||

| Closing because this appears to be senseless. | ||

| Joe, we have no idea what you think is the bug. It is intentional that the second argument for range is excluded. This is called an "half-open" range, and it helps avoid off-by-one and signpost errors. Your comments about break, continue and else don't seem to actually mean anything. Please write in complete English sentences and explain the nature of the supposed bug. |
