The Sieve of Eratosthenes is an ancient math algorithm created by Eratosthenes of Cyrene, explains Divine Orji, which is used to find all prime numbers between 0 and a given limit.
Basically, Orji says, “the algorithm loops through all numbers between 0 and our input. In each iteration, if the number is a prime, it marks all multiples of that number as non-primes.”
In this article, Orji demonstrates how to use the Sieve of Eratosthenes to solve a simple coding challenge.
