+"""
+In the ancient city of Numeria, legends speak of an oracle whose whispers could bend the very fabric of mathematics. 
+Travelers from distant lands would bring her a number, and in return, she would reveal its future: the very next prime number.
+Your task is to embody the oracle's wisdom. You will be given a number.
+You must find the smallest prime number that is strictly greater than it.
