LISTPRIMES(max,min,i)

This function is listing the set of prime numbers for the given set of numbers.
A prime number is a natural number, it can be divided, without a remainder, only by itself and by 1.
For e.g. the number 11 is a prime, because 11 is divided by 1 and 11 without any remainder.
But 6 is not prime, because 6 can be divided by 1,2,3 and 6. Such numbers are called composite numbers.
Also the number 0 and 1 are neither prime nor composite.
In $LISTPRIMES(max,min,i)$ , gives the list of prime numbers between the range $max$ and $min$ .
$max$ is the upper limit value and $min$ is the lower limit value
And $i$ is the position of the prime number value. $i$ value is optional.
Suppose we are not giving the ith value, it will show all the prime numbers in given ange.
This function will give the result as error when
1. any one of the argument is nonnumeric.
2. $max<min$ or $i$ is the beyond the range number of prime numbers
3.>math>max </math> or $min<0$ .

where

max,min and i are any real numbers

LISTPRIMES function returns prime numbers in the given range .It returns the ith prime number in the given range if i is given.

LISTPRIMES returns NaN if any of max,min or i are not real numbers.

LISTPRIMES

Lets see an example in (Column2Row1)

=LISTPRIMES(Column1Row1,Column1Row2)

Returns 2,3,5,7 for LISTPRIMES(10,2)

Consider another example in (Column2Row4)

=LISTPRIMES(Column1Row4,Column1Row5,Column1Row6)

Returns 3 for LISTPRIMES(10,2,2)
