Hi there

The prime number function in 4.4 breaks and continue statements is wrong.

Care to explain why? I can see it works as expected:

$ ./python Python 3.2rc3+ (py3k, Feb 17 2011, 21:31:25) [GCC 4.4.5] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

...

...

for n in range(2, 10):

... for x in range(2, n): ... if n % x == 0: ... print(n, 'equals', x, '*', n//x) ... break ... else: ... # loop fell through without finding a factor ... print(n, 'is a prime number') ... 2 is a prime number 3 is a prime number 4 equals 2 * 2 5 is a prime number 6 equals 2 * 3 7 is a prime number 8 equals 2 * 4 9 equals 3 * 3
