# --description--
By listing the first six prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13, we can see that the 6th prime is 13.
What is the `n`th prime number?
# --hints--
`nthPrime(6)` should return a number.
```js
assert(typeof nthPrime(6) === 'number');
```
`nthPrime(6)` should return 13.
```js
assert.strictEqual(nthPrime(6), 13);
```
`nthPrime(10)` should return 29.
```js
assert.strictEqual(nthPrime(10), 29);
```
`nthPrime(100)` should return 541.
```js
assert.strictEqual(nthPrime(100), 541);
```
`nthPrime(1000)` should return 7919.
```js
assert.strictEqual(nthPrime(1000), 7919);
```
`nthPrime(10001)` should return 104743.
```js
assert.strictEqual(nthPrime(10001), 104743);
```
# --seed--
## --seed-contents--
```js
function nthPrime(n) {
return true;
}
nthPrime(10001);
```
# --solutions--
```js
const nthPrime = n => {
let pN = 2;
let step = 0;
while (step < n) {
let isPrime = true;
let rootN = Math.sqrt(pN);
for (let i = 2; i <= rootN; i++) {
if (!(pN % i)) {
isPrime = false;
break;
}
}
isPrime ? step++ : '';
pN++;
}
return pN - 1;
}
```
