Hello,
Because p/i == 4/2 == 2 thenyou subtract 1 unil q == 0 and i = i+1 is
never executed.
(Use print statements to check it.)
Hope this helps,

function <- function(p){
i <- 2
r <- 0
while(i < p) {
q <- (p/i)
while(q>=1) {
q=(q-1)
}
if (q==0) {
r=1
} else
i=i+1
}
return(r)
}
This function stays in some kind of loop when I enter 4 as a function value.
It immediately returns 0 when I inter 3 though.
I don't seem te get why it does not give me just a result. Can someone tell
me why it stays in a loop?
Kind regards,
Michiel
