Hello friends,
Today’s post is about how to print a series of Prime numbers using only JavaScript. This script could help you to understand the basic concepts of JavaScript.
So basically the entire script is here. Just go through and ask me doubts in the comments section if you have any!

If you don’t know what is a prime number. Let me explain it:
A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. The first few prime numbers from 1 to 12 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11.
