Thanks, but i want to make my own algorythm that i can add whatever i want too. Besides the finding of the prime number, i want to find the divisors of that number aswell

@AndreiStar_05

The operation yail-divide cannot accept the arguments

this error occurs, if the textbox is empty

you might want to add a data validation check before starting the calculation...
also for large n your while loop will block the device and this might result in a runtime error...

Your variables n and i are treated like numbers in one place, and as lists in another place.

Make up your mind.

If you need to keep a list, make a new variable with a separate name, and init it with create empty list
