First of all, you are putting the definition inside the while loop, this will not disrupt your code, but make it significantly slow.
Second, you are using statements like if False, that will ALWAYS return False and the code wont run



So, instead of using if False try if not prime(num), then put an else statement for the other half. You don't even need the sum_of_primes = 0 +sum_of_primes, you can just remove that so you can finally replace the if-else with:



if prime(num):

    sum_of_primes = sum_of_primes + num

A simple yellow flag (also called the "Yellow Jack") had historically been used to signal quarantine (it stands for Q among signal flags), but now indicates the opposite, as a signal of a ship free of disease that requests boarding and inspection. A quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of people; it is 'a restraint upon the activities or communication of persons or the transport of goods designed to prevent the spread of disease or pests', for a certain period of time. [1] This is often used in connection to disease and illness, such as those who may possibly have been exposed to a communicable disease. [2] The term is often erroneously used to mean medical isolation, which is "to separate ill persons who have a communicable disease from those who are healthy...
