title: Beginner looking for advice/help on this code (Python)
body: <p>I've started the MIT open course for beginners (its in Python) and the first assignment is: 
  <em>Write a program that computes and prints the 1000th prime number.</em> </p>
  
  <p>I have started to do it on my own with the things learned in the lectures, but after a few attempts at nested loops, I can't seem to produce any working code. Can I have any tips, have my errors pointed out?</p>
  
  <pre><code>divisor = 1
  result = 2
  odds = 1
  total = 1
  
  # all odd int generation
  
  for x in range(100):
      total = total + 1
  
  # test for each generated number
  
      for n in range(1, total / 2):
          if (result % divisor != 0):
              print "result: ", result, " is prime!"
      odds = odds + 2
      result = odds
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It is incomplete, but even this part doesn't work for me.</p>
