Lecture 2







Problem set 1: Computing prime numbers, product of primes

This one's a little trickier, so feel free to comment if you run into any problems or want to brainstorm with other people!

It's as if I had just learned to say "hello" and "how are you" in a foreign language, and then someone suddenly asks me for a detailed description of my day. I know what I want to say, obviously, but I have no idea how to say it.

If it makes you feel any better, I've been drowning in that feeling while working my way through the *very first* exercise (I'm running late - lecture 2 is for tomorrow for me) and thank you for pinning it down so exactly!

I was feeling like most of the reading material was also written in that same foreign language, but I did get there in the end.

I'm hoping it will all get easier with practise!
