# Nth Prime
|
|
|
|
Given a number n, determine what the nth prime is.
|
|
|
|
By listing the first six prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13, we can see that
|
|
the 6th prime is 13.
|
|
|
|
If your language provides methods in the standard library to deal with prime
|
|
numbers, pretend they don't exist and implement them yourself.
