I wanted to code a variation of the 1000th prime number problem in the first problem set. I wanted to make it so that the user can choose which prime number they want. I used the following code but the program never stops.

candidate = 5
count = 3
total = raw_input("Which prime number would you like to find?")
while count <= total:
    for divisor in range(2, candidate // 2 + 1):
        remainder = candidate % divisor
        if remainder == 0:
            break
    else:
        count += 1
        print(candidate)
    candidate += 1
    
print(candidate - 1), "is the number %d
