I am stuck on problem 7 that is outlined clearly. I am trying to create a process that changes all of the non-prime number elements of a 65,000 element array to 1. Then I would like to verify that array was marked correctly so that only prime numbers have 0's at their location in the array. The displayArray process should display 1,3,5,7,11,13 etc. up to 65,000.


There is an include file also
Thanks for your help
