What's the question?

[mcmanuel20]

want to write acode to print prime numbers

[jalpesh_007]

you have done several mistakes.
At line 28 you have matched c==0, but you have to match b==0,because you are incementing b value.

Also you have ambiguously closed 2nd for loop, it will be exited after checking it will be divisible by any no. less than that.

So change it.If there are any doubt then ask.

Thanks

 for(a = 1; a <= num; a++)
{
    b = 0;
    for(c = 2; c <= a/2; c++)
    {
        if(a%c == 0)
        {
            b = b + 1;
        }
    }
    if(b == 0)
    {
        System.out.println("The prime number is" + a);
    }
}

Make changes like this and It should print the numbers for you

nJoy!!!

No doing any homework for others. Explain to the OP where is wrong and why. Also, your code is extremely slow with bad algorithm even though it is taken directly from the OP. One more, encouraging beginners to ignore the meaning of variable name is ruining others. If these beginners come out and become developers/programmers, others will be suffered.
