mistake in python tutorial

[Miriam Gomez Rios]

Hello, I think that the example in section 4.4 in the tutorial for python 2.7X is wrong.

http://docs.python.org/tutorial/controlflow.html



It will end up printing this if you run the exact code listed in the tutorial.



3 is a prime number

4 equals 2*2

5 is a prime number

5 is a prime number

5 is a prime number

6 equals 2 * 3

7 is a prime number

7 is a prime number

7 is a prime number

7 is a prime number

7 is a prime number

8 equals 2*4

9 is a prime number

9 equals 3*3



I believe it is because the is no break in " else print n is a prime number" and

it never prints anything about number 2 because the second for is like range(2,2)

which is empty so it does nothing.
