What is a prime number?

A prime number is a natural number that is greater than 1 and cannot be formed by multiplying two smaller natural numbers.

Given a number num, we have to check whether num is a prime number or not.

Example:

    Input:
    num = 59

    Output:
    59 is a prime number

    Input:
    num = 123

    Output:
    123 is not a prime number
