Java Program to Check Twisted Prime Number

by

In the previous article, we have discussed Java Program to Check Coprime Number

In this article we are going to understand what Twisted Prime number is and how we can check whether a number is Twisted Prime or not in Java with examples.

Program to Check Twisted Prime Number

Twisted Primes are prime numbers whose reverse are also prime numbers.

 Example :

13: Twisted Prime number
19: Not Twisted Prime number
11: Twisted Prime number

In the above examples the numbers 13 and 11 are only Twisted primes. 91 is the reverse of second number 19 which s not a prime. Hence 19 is not a Twisted prime number.

Let’s see different ways to check twisted prime number.

The best and excellent way to learn a java programming language is by practicing Simple Java Program Examples as it includes basic to advanced levels of concepts.

Approach :

  1. Enter/declare a number and store it .
  2. We pass the number into a function that returns the reversed number, then both the number and the reversed number is checked for prime.
  3. If both of the numbers are prime then the number is said to be twisted prime.

Method-1: Java Program to Check Twisted Prime Number By Using Static Value

import java.util.Scanner;
public class TwistedPrimeNumber{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        //A number declared
        int num = 17;

        if((isPrime(num)) && (isPrime(reverseNum(num))))
        {
            System.out.println(num+" is Twist Prime");
        }
        else
        {
            System.out.println(num+" is Not Twist Prime");
        }

    }

    //Function that returns reverse of a number
    static int reverseNum(int num)
    {
        int rev=0, remainder = 0;
        while (num != 0)
        {
            
            remainder = num % 10;
            rev = rev * 10 + remainder;
            num = num / 10;
        }
        
        return rev;
    }
    // Function to check for prime
    static boolean isPrime(int num)
    {
        int iter = 2;
        boolean flag = true;
        while (num > iter)
        {
            if (num % iter == 0)
            {
                flag = false;
                break;
            }
            iter++;
        }
        return flag;
    }
}

Output:

17 is Not Twist Prime

Method-2: Java Program to Check Twisted Prime Number By User Input Value

import java.util.Scanner;
public class TwistedPrimeNumber{
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        //Taking the number as input from the user using scanner class
        Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter a number : ");
        int num = scan.nextInt();

        if((isPrime(num)) && (isPrime(reverseNum(num))))
        {
            System.out.println(num+" is Twist Prime");
        }
        else
        {
            System.out.println(num+" is Not Twist Prime");
        }

    }

    //Function that returns reverse of a number
    static int reverseNum(int num)
    {
        int rev=0, remainder = 0;
        while (num != 0)
        {
            
            remainder = num % 10;
            rev = rev * 10 + remainder;
            num = num / 10;
        }
        
        return rev;
    }
    // Function to check for prime
    static boolean isPrime(int num)
    {
        int iter = 2;
        boolean flag = true;
        while (num > iter)
        {
            if (num % iter == 0)
            {
                flag = false;
                break;
            }
            iter++;
        }
        return flag;
    }
}

Output:

Case-1

Enter a number : 13
13 is Not Twist Prime

Case-2

Enter a number : 23 
23 is Not Twist Prime
