isPrime Method

A prime number is a number that is evenly divisible only by itself and 1. For example, the number 5 is prime because it can be evenly divided only by 1 and 5. The number 6, however, is not prime because it can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6.

Write a method named isPrime, which takes an integer as an argument and returns true if the argument is a prime number, or false se otherwise. Demonstrate the method in a complete program.

TIP: Recall that the % operator divides one number by another, and returns the remainder of the division. In an expression such as num1 % num2, the % operator will return 0 if num1 is evenly divisible by num2.

C#   Part 1: In your program, write a method that accepts a positive integer and returns true if the number is a prime number and false otherwise. Note that 2 is the only even prime number. An odd integer is prime if it not divisible by any odd integer less than or equal to the square root of the number. Part2: A prime number whose reversal is also a prime number is called emirp. For example, 11, 13, 79 and 359 are emirps. Write a program that outputs to a ListBox the first 100 emirps. Your program must contain the method from Part 1 that returns true if a number is prime; false otherwise and another method that returns the reversal of a positive number. You can reverse the integer in the following way: • Convert the integer into a string value = num.ToString(); • Use the following code to reverse the integer string newNum = “”; for (int l = value.Length; l > 0; l--) newNum = newNum + value[l-1]; Also, your program should have a TextBox that will accept a positive integer from the…
Retail StoreSuppose you have been consulted by a retail shop around your area to build a simple calculator. The calculator must be able to perform arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /) on integers. The program receives an expression from the user. The expression is structured as follows: integer input followed by an operator and another integer input from user prior to displaying the final result. Write a Java application that can perform the above expression. Create a method that takes two parameters and performs an arithmetic operation on the passed values. Your final output should consist of the expression and the result.
Java Program Chapter 5. PC #13. is Prime Method A prime number is a number that is evenly divisible only by itself and 1. For example, the number 5 is prime because it can be evenly divided only by 1 and 5. The number 6, however, is not prime because it can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6. Write a method named isPrime, which takes an integer as an argument and returns true if the argument is a prime number, or false otherwise. Demonstrate the method in a complete program. The program should ask the user to enter a number for primality test or a negative number to exit. Tip: Recall that the % operator divides one number by another, and returns the remainder of the division. In an expression such as num1 % num2, the % operator will return 0 if num1 is evenly divisible by num2. I do not want a goodbye system out in the program and it has to pass all the test cases.     Test Case 1       Please enter a number to check for primality or -1 to exit:\n2ENTER2 is a prime…
