Apparently, no one understands to think. Why did I waste my time. Goodbye

Ok, that does sound like a good idea. Thank you. Maybe this is closer to what you asking for? Here is the center of the algorithm. // FirstStep is set to a value based on the Current Multiple of 6 Managed in the Outer Loop ( 6, 12, 18, etc. ) // SecondStep is set to a value based...

Ok, I have seen not this one. The main difference is that it focuses on the odd numbers and I have no need for a complicated loop.

Thank you for response, I will happy to break it down. The sieve is a process of taking a value from the set { 6x-1 U 6X+1 }, (5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 25, 29, 31, 35, 37 ... N ). Using that value as a starting point to move through the same of numbers, based a simple pattern that I have...

Ok, fine. The problem I have is that I asked simply question about very simple idea, Four step algorithm. As I said I have spent the last 6 months looking for something that is this simple that does this accomplishes. I have discussed this with other mathematicians, and they agreed that the...

My whole purpose in starting this post was to discuss a concept. If you are not interested. Why should I care?

I have tested the algorithm using filemaker, so I could focus on the algorithm.

Let me rephrase this. Do you have any concept of what I am attempting to discuss here?

To put it simply, pseudocode is to share an idea.

Can you show me one sieve algorithm that is this simple, and appears to be valid out to a value of 100,000?

Thank you for the link to OneCompiler. This should be useful. I would to comment here that apparently most people here do not appear to understand the concept of psuedo code. I have seen examples of people that didn't recognize it to begin with. I think the Wikipedia listing is fairly...

Hi, Not to sound arrogant, but I was refering to searching for something similar to this algorithm. I believe this is that different of a process. Again, I hope that I am not sounding arrogant. Everything I have tested so far has validated the pattern. I wrote the original test in...

I am new to this forum, and I want to see what everyone thought of my idea. I realize that "everyone" has a new idea, but I have not been able to find any references to something similar. This is an algorithm of a prime sieve, and I am looking for ways to test its accuracy & efficiency. I am...

I am "student" of all subjects, and I certainly enjoy physics. I am currently researching prime number ideas.
