Given a List[] of n integers, find minimum number to be inserted in a list, so that sum of all elements of list should equal the closest prime number.

Notes

  • List size is at least 2.

  • List's numbers will only positives (n > 0).

  • Repetition of numbers in the list could occur.

  • The newer list's sum should equal the closest prime number.

Input >> Output Examples

1- minimumNumber ({3,1,2}) ==> return (1)

Explanation:

  • Since, the sum of the list's elements equal to (6), the minimum number to be inserted to transform the sum to prime number is (1), which will make the sum of the List equal the closest prime number (7).
2-  minimumNumber ({2,12,8,4,6}) ==> return (5)

Explanation:

  • Since, the sum of the list's elements equal to (32), the minimum number to be inserted to transform the sum to prime number is (5), which will make the sum of the List equal the closest prime number (37).
3- minimumNumber ({50,39,49,6,17,28}) ==> return (2)

Explanation:

  • Since, the sum of the list's elements equal to (189), the minimum number to be inserted to transform the sum to prime number is (2), which will make the sum of the List equal the closest prime number (191).
