To find first N prime numbers in python

Question

I am new to the programming world. I was just writing this code in python to generate N prime numbers. User should input the value for N which is the total number of prime n

Answer 1

def isPrime(y):
  i=2
  while i < y:
    if y%i == 0 :
      return 0
      exit()
    i=i+1
  return 1

x= raw_input('Enter the position 1st,2nd,..nth prime number you are looking for?: ')
z=int(x)
# for l in range(2,z)
count = 1
n = 2
while count <= z:
  if isPrime(n) == 1:
    if count == z:
      print n
    count +=1
  n=n+1
