sympy
library?sympy
is a library we use for symbolic mathematics in Python.
We use pip
to install sympy
. Let’s refer to the following command:
pip install sympy
nextprime
methodThe nextprime
method returns the i
th prime number greater than the given number, where i
is an integer.
The default value for i
is 1
. So, the nextprime
method returns the first prime number greater than the given number.
Let’s view the syntax of nextprime
method.
sympy.nextprime(n, ith=1)
n
: This represents any number.ith
: This indicates the ordinal prime number greater than n
to be retrieved.The method returns the ith
prime number greater than n
.
Let’s view the code below:
import sympyn = 100ith = 5print("sympy.nextprime(%s, %s) = %s" % (n, ith, sympy.nextprime(n, ith)))
sympy
package.n
.i
.ith
prime number larger than n
using the sympy.nextprime()
method.
