Prime Difference
  • Given an integer *n*, output the smallest prime such that the difference between it and the next prime is at least *n*.
  • For example, if `n=5`, you would output `23`, since the next prime is `29`, and `29-23>=5`.
  • # More Input/Output Examples
  • 1 -> 2 (3 - 2 >= 1)
  • 2 -> 3 (5 - 3 >= 2)
  • 3 -> 7 (11 - 7 >= 3)
  • 4 -> 7
  • 5 -> 23
  • 6 -> 23
  • 7 -> 89
  • 8 -> 89
  • This is code-golf, so shortest code wins.

Prime Difference
Given an integer *n*, output the smallest prime such that the difference between it and the next prime is at least *n*.

For example, if `n=5`, you would output `23`, since the next prime is `29`, and `29-23>=5`.

# More Input/Output Examples

    1 -> 2 (3 - 2 >= 1)
    2 -> 3 (5 - 3 >= 2)
    3 -> 7 (11 - 7 >= 3)
    4 -> 7
    5 -> 23
    6 -> 23
    7 -> 89
    8 -> 89

This is code-golf, so shortest code wins.
