Does this even work? #256

I was just testing the app with some random prime numbers, and it literally does not work. I tried 2, 3, 5, and 7, and it detected it as a non prime number.

Does this fall under the 5% potential error? Or is there an internal joke happening that I am not aware of?

Well, yes! Sometimes you get unlucky and it would not report correctly, in that case you should try it a few more times!

Sorry for the late reply. It is working when I tried it now. Nice!
