Problem 7

This problem asks for 10001st number prime. As far as I know, there is no trick to get there. We need compute all the numbers in the series. As I’ve written before, solving Euler project problems using a DB has some advantages. We already have some prime numbers stored from problem 2. In order to get the 10001st item, we just use sql offset command.

select number from primes limit 1 offset 10000
