Sieve theory | Primality tests | Algorithms
In mathematics, the sieve of Eratosthenes is an ancient algorithm for finding all prime numbers up to any given limit. It does so by iteratively marking as composite (i.e., not prime) the multiples of each prime, starting with the first prime number, 2. The multiples of a given prime are generated as a sequence of numbers starting from that prime, with constant difference between them that is equal to that prime. This is the sieve's key distinction from using trial division to sequentially test each candidate number for divisibility by each prime. Once all the multiples of each discovered prime have been marked as composites, the remaining unmarked numbers are primes. The earliest known reference to the sieve (Ancient Greek: κόσκινον Ἐρατοσθένους, kóskinon Eratosthénous) is in Nicomachus of Gerasa's Introduction to Arithmetic, an early 2nd cent. CE book, which describes it and attributes it to Eratosthenes of Cyrene, a 3rd cent. BCE Greek mathematician. One of a number of prime number sieves, it is one of the most efficient ways to find all of the smaller primes. It may be used to find primes in arithmetic progressions. (Wikipedia).
Is the Sieve of Eratosthenese past its prime?
The Sieve of Eratosthenes is an amazing tool for teaching people about prime numbers and composite numbers but it's not without its limitations. I've tried to answer the question, 'Is there a better way of representing a sieve like this?' 0:00 Sieve of Eratosthenes In the first part of t

Sieve Of Eratosthenes (visualized)
This is a visualization of the Sieve of Eratosthenes used to find the primes up to 900. We only need to check for divisibility by primes up to 30, which is the square root of 900 so we find these primes relatively quickly. #manim #sieve #eratosthenes #visualmath #math #mtbos #primes #numbe

Eratosthenes: Biography of a Great Thinker
Eratosthenes (c. 276 BC -- c.194 BC) was a Greek scholar nicknamed "Beta." This is because he was considered the second best in so many fields. Despite the dismissive nickname, Eratosthenes is still celebrated to this day for his significant contributions to math, astronomy, and geograph
