Other than the sieve of Eratosthenes being a way to compute a finite list of primes I don't see the relationship here. Could you elaborate?

- ben509 8y agoI think the relationship is that the sieve has a natural shape since it's based on ruling out multiples.
- asynchrony 8y agoIsn’t the sieve’s eventual shape just the list of prime numbers?
