Sieve of Eratosthenes. code example

Example 1: sieve of eratosthenes c++

// C++ program to print all primes smaller than or equal to 
// n using Sieve of Eratosthenes 
#include <bits/stdc++.h> 
using namespace std; 

void SieveOfEratosthenes(int n) 
{ 
	// Create a boolean array "prime[0..n]" and initialize 
	// all entries it as true. A value in prime[i] will 
	// finally be false if i is Not a prime, else true. 
	bool prime[n+1]; 
	memset(prime, true, sizeof(prime)); 

	for (int p=2; p*p<=n; p++) 
	{ 
		// If prime[p] is not changed, then it is a prime 
		if (prime[p] == true) 
		{ 
			// Update all multiples of p greater than or 
			// equal to the square of it 
			// numbers which are multiple of p and are 
			// less than p^2 are already been marked. 
			for (int i=p*p; i<=n; i += p) 
				prime[i] = false; 
		} 
	} 

	// Print all prime numbers 
	for (int p=2; p<=n; p++) 
	if (prime[p]) 
		cout << p << " "; 
} 

// Driver Program to test above function 
int main() 
{ 
	int n = 30; 
	cout << "Following are the prime numbers smaller "
		<< " than or equal to " << n << endl; 
	SieveOfEratosthenes(n); 
	return 0; 
}

Example 2: prime of sieve

//sieve of eratosthenes or prime of sieve
#include<iostream>
#include<math.h>
using namespace std;
void primeofsieve(long long int n)
{
	long long int arr[n]={};
	for(int i=2;i<=sqrt(n);i++)
	{
		for(long long int j=i*i;j<=n;j+=i)
			arr[j]=1;
	}
	for(long long int i=2;i<=n;i++)
	{
	    if(arr[i]==0)
	    	cout<<i<<" ";
	}


}
int main()
{

	#ifdef _DEBUG
	freopen("input.txt", "r", stdin);
	freopen("output.txt", "w", stdout);
    #endif
	long long int n;
	cin>>n;
	cout<<"PRIME NUMBERs ARE : ";
	primeofsieve(n);
	return 0;
}

Example 3: sieve of eratosthenes pseudocode

find primes up to N
For all numbers a : from 2 to sqrt(n)
     IF a is unmarked THEN
         a is prime
         For all multiples of a (a < n)
             mark multiples of as composite
All unmarked nummbers are prime!
