nth-prime

Nth Prime

Given a number n, determine what the nth prime is.

By listing the first six prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13, we can see that the 6th prime is 13.

If your language provides methods in the standard library to deal with prime numbers, pretend they don't exist and implement them yourself.

Setup

Go through the setup instructions for TypeScript to install the necessary dependencies:

https://exercism.io/tracks/typescript/installation

Requirements

Install assignment dependencies:

$ yarn install

Making the test suite pass

Execute the tests with:

$ yarn test

In the test suites all tests but the first have been skipped.

Once you get a test passing, you can enable the next one by changing xit to it.
