Hi, my name is Lucas. I’m from Brazil and I’m (since now) blogging about my experiencie learning how to code. I’m starting with the Python language, using a free course at Coursera. So far I’m loving it!

Prime number or not?

Today I wrote a code that says if a number is a prime number or not. The coolest exercise assignment for today, and yet not the hardest.


Much harder for me was to figure out a way to tell if a certain number has a couple of equal adjacent digits inside of it, or not. For example: 1223 = yes; 1234 = no.
