C Program to Display Prime Numbers between Given Interval

C program to display prime numbers between given interval has been shown here. For example, the prime numbers between 10 and 20 are 11, 13, 17, 19. In this program, the upper and lower bounds of the interval are taken as inputs.

#include <stdio.h>

// function to check prime
int check_prime(int num) {
    // declare variables
    int i;
    // no prime number less than 2, so return false
    if (num < 2)

    // check divisibility of num
    for (i = 2; i <= sqrt(num); i++) {
        if (num % i == 0) {
            return 0; // num is composite so return false
        }
    }
    // num is prime so return true
    return 1;
}

int main() {
    // declare variables
    int n1, n2, i;

    // take input of the inteval
    printf("Enter the lower and upper bounds of interval = ");
    scanf("%d %d", & n1, & n2);

    printf("Prime numbers between %d and %d: ", n1, n2);
    // find primes between n1 and n2
    for (i = n1; i <= n2; i++) {
        // check if current number is prime
        if (check_prime(i)) {
            printf("%d ", i);
        }
    }

    return 0;
}

Output

Enter the lower and upper bounds of interval = 10 30

Prime numbers between 10 and 30: 11 13 17 19 23 29
