Need help with why it's not printing correctly

[shy dawn]

public static boolean isPrime(int value)
    {
        boolean isPrime = true;
        for(int i = 2; i < value; i++){
            if(value % i == 0){
                return false;
            }
            else{
                return true;
            }
        }
        return isPrime;
    }

this method will always return false

Why

[brisk nymph]

because the last value of i will be equal to the value and the method will return false
