Jun 9, 20201 min read

A number that is divisible only by itself and 1 is called prime number.

In this program we will print next prime number and input will be taken from user.

def nextprime(n):
   while True:
      n+=1
      for i in range(2,n):
         if n%i==0:
            break
      else:
         return n

Output:
nextprime(11)
13
