Next Prime
Description
Find the next prime above n.
Usage
nextPrime(n)
Arguments
n
natural number.
Details
nextPrime finds the next prime number greater than n, while
previousPrime finds the next prime number below n.
In general the next prime will occur in the interval [n+1,n+log(n)].
In double precision arithmetic integers are represented exactly only up to
2^53 - 1, therefore this is the maximal allowed value.
Value
Integer.

Examples
p <- nextPrime(1e+6) # 1000003
isPrime(p) # TRUE
