Determining if a number is prime

Question

I have perused a lot of code on this topic, but most of them produce the numbers that are prime all the way up to the input number. However, I need code which only checks w

Answer 1

Someone above had the following.

bool check_prime(int num) {
for (int i = num - 1; i > 1; i--) {
    if ((num % i) == 0)
        return false;
}
return true;
}

This mostly worked. I just tested it in Visual Studio 2017. It would say that anything less than 2 was also prime (so 1, 0, -1, etc.)

Here is a slight modification to correct this.

bool check_prime(int number)
{
    if (number > 1)
    {
        for (int i = number - 1; i > 1; i--)
        {
            if ((number % i) == 0)
                return false;
        }
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}
