5900f3761000cf542c50fe89 Problem 10: Summation of primes 5 301723 problem-10-summation-of-primes

--description--

The sum of the primes below 10 is 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 17.

Find the sum of all the primes below n.

--hints--

primeSummation(17) should return a number.

assert(typeof primeSummation(17) === 'number');

primeSummation(17) should return 41.

assert.strictEqual(primeSummation(17), 41);

primeSummation(2001) should return 277050.

assert.strictEqual(primeSummation(2001), 277050);

primeSummation(140759) should return 873608362.

assert.strictEqual(primeSummation(140759), 873608362);

primeSummation(2000000) should return 142913828922.

assert.strictEqual(primeSummation(2000000), 142913828922);
