There is a famous mathematical conjecture called the Goldbach conjecture, that every even integer greater than 2 has the property that it is the sum of two prime integers. Write a C program that will prove that this conjecture is true for even numbers between a START value and a FINISH value. For example, if START = 700 and FINISH = 800 the initial output of your program would be:
700 = 17 + 683
702 = 11 + 691
The values of START and FINISH are to be supplied by command line arguments.

I have this but theres a problem with a loop somwhere cuz when run it just stays blank
int isPrime(int i);
int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
int start = atoi(argv[1]), finish = atoi(argv[2]);
int i = start, j = 0, k;
while(i <= finish){
k = i - 1;
do {
j = j + 1;
k = k - 1;
} while( j + k != i);
do {
if((isPrime(j) == 1) && (isPrime(k) == 1)) printf("\n%d = %d + %d", i, k, j);
i = i + 2;
} while( j + k == i);
}
return(0);
}
int isPrime(int i){
int j, count = 0;
for(j = 1; j <= i; j++){
if((i % j) == 0) count++;
}
return(count == 2);
}
any help within an hour would be greatly appreciated
