Solution to find 1000th prime number using python?

Answer 1

Here's a start

umbers=[True]*5001

index=2

primes=[]

while index<5000:

multiplier=2

while index*multiplier <= 5000:

Numbers[index*multiplier]=False

multiplier+=1

index+=1

while Numbers[index]==False and index < 5000:

index+=1

for x in range(0,5000):

if Numbers[x]==True:

primes.append(x)

x+=1

print primes
