SIEVE OF ERATOSTHENES:

#include<iostream>
bool arr[1000001];
int main()
{
    arr[0]=arr[1]=1;
    for(int i=4;i<1000001;i+=2)
        arr[i]=1;
    for(int i=3;i*i<1000001;i+=2)
    {
        if(!arr[i])
            for(int j=2;i*j<1000001;j++)
            {
                arr[i*j]=1;
            }
    }
    for(int i=0;i<100000;i++)
        if(!arr[i])
            std::cout<<i<<" ";
        return 0;
}

hope this will help and is not related to the current long contest…:stuck_out_tongue:
