Ans. 
The naïve approach for this question is to run a loop from the start to the end number. And for each number, check if it is prime or not. If the number is prime, we print it otherwise skip it.

One optimization to this approach would be to skip all even numbers (except 2 if present in interval) since even numbers are not prime.
Function to check if a number is prime or not :
isPrime(n):
if (n <= 1) return false
for (i=2;

Ans. 
The idea is to create a copy of num and recursively pass the copy by reference, and pass num by value. In the recursive calls, divide num by 10 while moving down the recursion tree. While moving up the recursion tree, divide the copy by 10. When they meet in a function for which all child calls are over, the last digit of num will be ith digit from the beginning and the last digit of copy will be ith digit from the end
