Unix Shell Program To Print Range of Prime No

This Unix shell program prints prime numbers within a specified range of numbers. The user is prompted to enter a number range. The program then uses a nested while loop to check each number from 1 to the input range for primality. It divides each potential prime by all integers from 1 to itself, counting the number of remainders of 0. If only 2 remainders are found, the number is prime and printed as output.
