using System;

public class Test
{
publicstatic void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine(getPrimeForNumber(12));
}
publicstatic bool isPrime(int number){
for(int i=2;i<=number/2;i++){
if(number%i==0){
returnfalse;
}
}
returntrue;
}
publicstatic int getPrimeForNumber(int number){
inti=1;
intcounter = 0;
while(counter<number){
i++;
if(isPrime(i)){
counter++;

}

}
returni;
}
}

Pseudocode:
Input number
Go through all numbers
If prime then increment counter
If counter equal to user input, thenoutput result
