Question

A Goldbach number is a positive even integer that can be expressed as the sum of two odd primes.
Note: All even integer numbers greater than 4 are Goldbach numbers.
Example:
6 = 3 + 3
10 = 3 + 7
10 = 5 + 5
Hence, 6 has one odd prime pair 3 and 3. Similarly, 10 has two odd prime pairs, i.e. 3, 7 and 5, 5.
Write a program to accept an even integer ‘N’ where N > 9 and N < 50. Find all the odd prime pairs whose sum is equal to the number ‘N’.

Test your program with the following data and some random data:
Example 1:
INPUT:
N = 14
OUTPUT:
Prime pairs are:
3, 11
7, 7

Example 2:
INPUT:
N = 30
OUTPUT:
Prime numbers are:
7, 23
11, 19
13, 17

Example 3:
INPUT:
N = 17
OUTPUT:
Invalid input. Number is odd.
Example 4:
INPUT:
N = 126
OUTPUT:
Invalid input. Number is out of range.
