TY - GEN T1 - An algorithmic implementation of the Pi function based on a new sieve A1 - Gulich, Damián A2 - Funes, Gustavo A2 - Lofeudo, Nahuel A2 - Garavaglia, Leopoldo A2 - Garavaglia, Mario LA - English UL - http://vufind10-pruebas.sigbunlp.bibliotecas.unlp.edu.ar/Record/dif.56796 AB - In this paper we propose an algorithm that correctly discards a set of numbers (from a previously defined sieve) with an interval of integers. Leopoldo's Theorem states that the remaining integer numbers will generate and count the complete list of primes of absolute value greater than 3 in the interval of interest. This algorithm avoids the problem of generating large lists of numbers, and can be used to compute (even in parallel) the prime counting function π(h). ER -
