10. Examples
The chapter emphasizes the importance of functions in programming, particularly in writing clear and maintainable code. Concepts such as factors, prime numbers, and the use of for and while loops are discussed extensively. Additionally, it underscores the significance of developing algorithms that are both efficient and easy to understand, fostering better programming practices.

What we have learnt
- A prime number is only divisible by 1 and itself.
- Functions can be used to break down complex problems into simpler, manageable parts.
- The while loop is useful when the number of iterations is not predetermined.
Key Concepts
- -- Factors
- The numbers that divide another number without leaving a remainder.
- -- Prime Number
- A number that has no divisors other than 1 and itself.
- -- Algorithm
- A set procedure or formula for solving a problem.
- -- For Loop
- A control flow statement that allows code to be executed repeatedly based on a boolean condition.
- -- While Loop
- A control flow statement that executes a block of code as long as its condition evaluates to true.
