I am trying to create a function for finding the immediate next prime number for the given input n. I am trying to run it online and the error is regarding server time out. I have checked my code a gazillion times and unable to grasp the issue. I have tried many different approaches, consulted online forums as well as got my function timed in MATLAB for various outputs even of the order 10^7. It stills displays the same server time out error. I am posting the code here to get comments on it by the teacher/TA.
function k=next_prime(n)
if n<2
k=1;
return;
end
if n>=2 & n<=1000
d=0;
while(isprime(d)==0)
d=n+1;
end
k=d;
end
if (rem(n,2)==0 & n>1000)
n=n+1;
end
if (rem(n,2)~=0 & n>1000)
partialsieve = primes(1000);
partialsieve(1) = [];
while true
if ~all(rem(n,partialsieve))
n = n + 2;
else
if (isprime(n)==1)
k = n;
break;
else
n = n + 2;
end
end
end
end
end

It was unable to come out of the loop because d was stuck at n+1. The following changes will work.
function k=next_prime(n)
if n<2
k=1;
return;
end
if n>=2 & n<=1000
d=n+1;
while(isprime(d)==0)
d=d+1;
end
