You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
- Task
Generate a sequence of primes by means of trial division.
Trial division is an algorithm where a candidate number is tested for being a prime by trying to divide it by other numbers.
You may use primes, or any numbers of your choosing, as long as the result is indeed a sequence of primes.
The sequence may be bounded (i.e. up to some limit), unbounded, starting from the start (i.e. 2) or above some given value.
Organize your function as you wish, in particular, it might resemble a filtering operation, or a sieving operation.
If you want to use a ready-made is_prime
function, use one from the Primality by trial division page (i.e., add yours there if it isn't there already).

Ada
Use the generic function Prime_Numbers.Is_Prime, as specified in Prime decomposition#Ada. The program reads two numbers A and B from the command line and prints all primes between A and B (inclusive).
<lang Ada>with Prime_Numbers, Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Command_Line;
procedure Sequence_Of_Primes is
package Integer_Numbers is new Prime_Numbers (Natural, 0, 1, 2); use Integer_Numbers; Start: Natural := Natural'Value(Ada.Command_Line.Argument(1)); Stop: Natural := Natural'Value(Ada.Command_Line.Argument(2));
begin
for I in Start .. Stop loop if Is_Prime(I) then Ada.Text_IO.Put(Natural'Image(I)); end if; end loop;
end Sequence_Of_Primes;</lang>
- Output:
>./sequence_of_primes 50 99 53 59 61 67 71 73 79 83 89 97
ALGOL 68
Simple bounded sequence using the "is prime" routine from Primality by trial division#ALGOL 68 <lang algol68># is prime PROC from the primality by trial division task # MODE ISPRIMEINT = INT; PROC is prime = ( ISPRIMEINT p )BOOL:
IF p <= 1 OR ( NOT ODD p AND p/= 2) THEN FALSE ELSE BOOL prime := TRUE; FOR i FROM 3 BY 2 TO ENTIER sqrt(p) WHILE prime := p MOD i /= 0 DO SKIP OD; prime FI;
- end of code from the primality by trial division task #
- returns an array of n primes >= start #
PROC prime sequence = ( INT start, INT n )[]INT:
BEGIN [ n ]INT seq; INT prime count := 0; FOR p FROM start WHILE prime count < n DO IF is prime( p ) THEN prime count +:= 1; seq[ prime count ] := p FI OD; seq END; # prime sequence #
- find 20 primes >= 30 #
[]INT primes = prime sequence( 30, 20 ); print( ( "20 primes starting at 30: " ) ); FOR p FROM LWB primes TO UPB primes DO
print( ( " ", whole( primes[ p ], 0 ) ) )
OD; print( ( newline ) )</lang>
- Output:

ALGOL W
Uses the ALGOL W isPrime procedure from the Primality by Trial Division task. <lang algolw>begin
% use the isPrime procedure from the Primality by Trial Division task % logical procedure isPrime ( integer value n ) ; algol "isPrime" ; % sets the elements of p to the first n primes. p must have bounds 1 :: n % procedure getPrimes ( integer array p ( * ) ; integer value n ) ; if n > 0 then begin % have room for at least oe prime % integer pPos, possiblePrime; p( 1 ) := 2; pPos := 2; possiblePrime := 3; while pPos <= n do begin if isPrime( possiblePrime ) then begin p( pPos ) := possiblePrime; pPos := pPos + 1; end; possiblePrime := possiblePrime + 1 end end getPrimes ;
begin % test getPrimes % integer array p( 1 :: 100 ); getPrimes( p, 100 ); for i := 1 until 100 do begin if i rem 20 = 1 then write( i_w := 4, s_w := 1, p( i ) ) else writeon( i_w := 4, s_w := 1, p( i ) ) end for_i end
end.</lang>

Fortran
This version was written for an IBM1130, which offered 16-bit integers. Storage size was 32K words. It was written before the revised dogma that one is not a prime number became common. With punched-card input, using only capital letters was normal. This system offered Fortran IV which lacks the many later developments such as if ... then style statements, thus the profusion of statement labels and arithmetic if-statements. In if (expression) negative,zero,positive the sign of the expression is examined to choose the appropriate label to jump to. Labels can only be numbers, alas. There was also no MOD function for determining the remainder.
This routine does not attempt a calculation of sqrt(n), a time-consuming and also potentially inacurrate scheme. For instance, using Trunc(Log10(n)) + 1 to determine how many digits are needed to print n seems an obvious ad-hoc ploy, and gave 1 for n = 1 to 9, but it also gave 1 for n = 10, because Log10(10) was calculated as 0.9999964 or so (single precision on an IBM 390 system), which truncates to zero.
Instead, since many successive numbers are to be tested for primality, advantage can be taken of the fact that prime numbers only up to PRIME(LP) need be tried as factors all the way up to N = PRIME(LP + 1)**2 = XP2. This is similar to starting a pass through a Sieve of Eratoshenes at P*P rather than at 2*P. Thus, 5 is the largest factor to try, even beyond 5*5, all the way up to 49, because, if the number were divisible by 7, 7*2 would already have been checked because of 2, 7*3 because of 3, and so on. Only when 7*7 is needed will a further possible factor have to be tried. Likewise, although the last possible factor to try for N up to the integer limit of 32767 is 181 because the square of the next prime (191) exceeds 32767, in order for the method to be able to know this, the PRIME array must have space for this surplus prime. However, it does not know this properly because the square of 191 does exceed 32767 and so its value in XP2 will be incorrect, but this doesn't matter because only equality to XP2 is checked for and there will never be call to try 191 as a factor because 181 suffices up to the integer limit and the iteration will stop by then. Fortunately, 32767 is not divisible by three so that value will not be excluded as a possible candidate for N, and so the search can correctly end after inspecting the largest possible integer - finding it divisible by seven.
This method avoids considering multiples of two and three, leading to the need to pre-load array PRIME and print the first few values explicitly rather than flounder about with special startup tricks. Even so, in order not to pre-load with 7, and to correctly start the factor testing with 5, the first few primes are found with some wasted effort because 5 is not needed at the start. Storing the primes as found has the obvious advantage of enabling divisions only by prime numbers, but care with the startup is needed to ensure that primes have indeed been stored before they are called for.

Go
An unbounded cascading filtering method using channels, adapted from the classic concurrent prime sieve example in the "Try Go" window at http://golang.org/, improved by postponing the initiation of the filtering by a prime until the prime's square is seen in the input. <lang go>package main
import "fmt"
func NumsFromBy(from int, by int, ch chan<- int) {
for i := from; ; i+=by { ch <- i }
}
func Filter(in <-chan int, out chan<- int, prime int) {
for { i := <-in if i%prime != 0 { // here is the trial division out <- i } }
}
func Sieve(out chan<- int) {
out <- 3 q := 9 ps := make(chan int) go Sieve(ps) // separate primes supply p := <-ps nums := make(chan int) go NumsFromBy(5,2,nums) // end of setup for i := 0; ; i++ { n := <-nums if n < q { out <- n // n is prime } else { ch1 := make(chan int) // n == q == p*p go Filter(nums, ch1, p) // creation of a filter by p, at p*p nums = ch1 p = <-ps // next prime q = p*p // and its square } }
}
func primes (c chan<- int) {
c <- 2 go Sieve(c)
}
func main() {
ch := make(chan int) go primes(ch) fmt.Print("First twenty:") for i := 0; i < 20; i++ { fmt.Print(" ", <-ch) } fmt.Println()
}</lang>
- Output:
First twenty: 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 37 41 43 47 53 59 61 67 71
A simple iterative method, also unbounded and starting with 2. <lang go>package main
import "fmt"
func newP() func() int {
n := 1 return func() int { for { n++ // Trial division as naïvely as possible. For a candidate n, // numbers between 1 and n are checked to see if they divide n. // If no number divides n, n is prime. for f := 2; ; f++ { if f == n { return n } if n%f == 0 { // here is the trial division break } } } }
}
func main() {
p := newP() fmt.Print("First twenty:") for i := 0; i < 20; i++ { fmt.Print(" ", p()) } fmt.Println()
}</lang>
- Output:

Haskell
The most basic: <lang haskell>[n | n <- [2..], []==[i | i <- [2..n-1], rem n i == 0]]</lang>
With trial division emulated by additions (the seeds of Sieve): <lang haskell>[n | n <- [2..], []==[i | i <- [2..n-1], j <- [i,i+i..n], j==n]]</lang>
With recursive filtering (in wrong order, from bigger to smaller natural numbers): <lang haskell>foldr (\x r -> x : filter ((> 0).(`rem` x)) r) [] [2..]</lang>
With iterated sieving (in right order, from smaller to bigger primes): <lang haskell>Data.List.unfoldr (\(x:xs) -> Just (x, filter ((> 0).(`rem` x)) xs)) [2..]</lang>
A proper primality testing by trial division can be used to produce short ranges of primes more efficiently: <lang haskell>primesFromTo n m = filter isPrime [n..m]</lang>
The standard optimal trial division version has isPrime
in the above inlined:
<lang haskell>-- primes = filter isPrime [2..] primes = 2 : [n | n <- [3..], foldr (\p r-> p*p > n || rem n p > 0 && r)
True primes]</lang>
It is easy to amend this to test only odd numbers by only odd primes, or automatically skip the multiples of 3 (also, 5, etc.) by construction as well (a wheel factorization technique):
<lang haskell>primes = 2 : 3 : [n | n <- [5,7..], foldr (\p r-> p*p > n || rem n p > 0 && r)
True (drop 1 primes)] = [2,3,5] ++ [n | n <- scanl (+) 7 (cycle [4,2]), foldr (\p r-> p*p > n || rem n p > 0 && r) True (drop 2 primes)] -- = [2,3,5,7] ++ [n | n <- scanl (+) 11 (cycle [2,4,2,4,6,2,6,4]), ... (drop 3 primes)]</lang>
Sieve by trial division
The classic David Turner's 1983 (1976? 1975?) SASL code repeatedly sieves a stream of candidate numbers from those divisible by a prime at a time, and works even for unbounded streams, thanks to lazy evaluation: <lang haskell>primesT = sieve [2..]
where sieve (p:xs) = p : sieve [x | x <- xs, rem x p /= 0]
-- map head -- . iterate (\(p:xs) -> filter ((> 0).(`rem` p)) xs) $ [2..]</lang>
As shown in Melissa O'Neill's paper "The Genuine Sieve of Eratosthenes", its complexity is quadratic in number of primes produced whereas that of optimal trial division is , and of true SoE it is , in n primes produced.
Indeed as Eratosthenes sieve works by counting, its removal step could be prototyped as (\(p:xs)-> minus xs [p,p+p..])
, where minus xs ys == xs Data.List.\\ ys
for any finite and increasing xs and ys.
Bounded sieve by trial division
Bounded formulation has normal trial division complexity, because it can stop early via an explicit guard: <lang haskell>primesTo m = sieve [2..m]
where sieve (p:xs) | p*p > m = p : xs | otherwise = p : sieve [x | x <- xs, rem x p /= 0]
-- (\(a,b:_) -> map head a ++ b) . span ((< m).(^2).head) -- $ iterate (\(p:xs) -> filter ((>0).(`rem`p)) xs) [2..m]</lang>
Postponed sieve by trial division
To make it unbounded, the guard cannot be simply discarded. The firing up of a filter by a prime should be postponed until its square is seen amongst the candidates (so a bigger chunk of input numbers are taken straight away as primes, between each opening up of a new filter, instead of just one head element in the non-postponed algorithm): <lang haskell>primesPT = sieve primesPT [2..]
where sieve ~(p:ps) (x:xs) = x : after (p*p) xs (sieve ps . filter ((> 0).(`rem` p))) after q (x:xs) f | x < q = x : after q xs f | otherwise = f (x:xs)
-- fix $ concatMap (fst.fst) . iterate (\((_,t),p:ps) -> -- (span (< head ps^2) [x | x <- t, rem x p > 0], ps)) . (,) ([2,3],[4..])</lang>
~(p:ps)
is a lazy pattern: the matching will be delayed until any of its variables are actually needed. Here it means that on the very first iteration the head of primesPT
will be safely accessed only after it is already defined (by x : after (p*p) ...
).
Segmented Generate and Test
Explicating the run-time list of filters (created implicitly by the sieves above) as a list of factors to test by on each segment between the consecutive squares of primes (so that no testing is done prematurely), and rearranging to avoid recalculations, leads to the following: <lang haskell>import Data.List (inits)
primesST = 2 : 3 : sieve 5 9 (drop 2 primesST) (inits $ tail primesST)
where sieve x q ps (fs:ft) = filter (\y-> all ((/=0).rem y) fs) [x,x+2..q-2] ++ sieve (q+2) (head ps^2) (tail ps) ft</lang>
inits
makes a stream of (progressively growing) prefixes of an input stream, starting with an empty prefix, here making the fs
parameter to get a sequence of values [], [3], [3,5], ...
.
Runs at empirical time complexity, in n primes produced. Can be used as a framework for unbounded segmented sieves, replacing divisibility testing with proper sieve of Eratosthenes on arrays, etc.
The filtering function is equivalent to noDivsBy
defined as part of isPrime
function, except that the comparisons testing for the square root are no longer needed and so are spared.
J
Implementation: <lang J>primTrial=:3 :0
try=. i.&.(p:inv) %: >./ y candidate=. (y>1)*y=<.y y #~ candidate*(y e.try) = +/ 0= try|/ y
)</lang>
Example use:
<lang J> primTrial 1e6+i.100 1000003 1000033 1000037 1000039 1000081 1000099</lang>
Note that this is a filter - it selects values from its argument which are prime. If no suitable values are found the resulting sequence of primes will be empty.
Note: if you instead want an iterator, 4&p: y returns the next prime after y.

I've chosen to solve this task by creating a new iterator type, TDPrimes. TDPrimes contains the upper limit of the sequence. The iteration state is the list of computed primes, and the item returned with each iteration is the current prime. The core of the solution is the next method for TDPrimes, which computes the next prime by trial division of the previously determined primes contained in the iteration state. <lang Julia> type TDPrimes{T<:Integer}

Racket
Infinite list of primes:
Using laziness
This example uses infinite lists (streams) to implement a sieve algorithm that produces all prime numbers.
<lang Racket>#lang lazy (define nats (cons 1 (map add1 nats))) (define (sift n l) (filter (λ(x) (not (zero? (modulo x n)))) l)) (define (sieve l) (cons (first l) (sieve (sift (first l) (rest l))))) (define primes (sieve (rest nats))) (!! (take 25 primes))</lang>
Optimized with postponed processing
Since a prime's multiples that count start from its square, we should only add them when we reach that square.
<lang Racket>#lang lazy (define nats (cons 1 (map add1 nats))) (define (sift n l) (filter (λ(x) (not (zero? (modulo x n)))) l)) (define (when-bigger n l f)
(if (< (car l) n) (cons (car l) (when-bigger n (cdr l) f)) (f l)))
(define (sieve l ps)
(cons (car l) (when-bigger (* (car ps) (car ps)) (cdr l) (λ(t) (sieve (sift (car ps) t) (cdr ps))))))
(define primes (sieve (cdr nats) primes)) (!! (take 25 primes))</lang>
Using threads and channels
Same algorithm as above, but now using threads and channels to produce a channel of all prime numbers (similar to newsqueak). The macro at the top is a convenient wrapper around definitions of channels using a thread that feeds them.
<lang Racket>#lang racket (define-syntax (define-thread-loop stx)
(syntax-case stx () [(_ (name . args) expr ...) (with-syntax ([out! (datum->syntax stx 'out!)]) #'(define (name . args) (define out (make-channel)) (define (out! x) (channel-put out x)) (thread (λ() (let loop () expr ... (loop)))) out))]))
(define-thread-loop (nats) (for ([i (in-naturals 1)]) (out! i))) (define-thread-loop (filter pred? c)
(let ([x (channel-get c)]) (when (pred? x) (out! x))))
(define (sift n c) (filter (λ(x) (not (zero? (modulo x n)))) c)) (define-thread-loop (sieve c)
(let ([x (channel-get c)]) (out! x) (set! c (sift x c))))
(define primes (let ([ns (nats)]) (channel-get ns) (sieve ns))) (for/list ([i 25] [x (in-producer (λ() (channel-get primes)))]) x)</lang>
Using generators
Yet another variation of the same algorithm as above, this time using generators.
<lang Racket>#lang racket (require racket/generator) (define nats (generator () (for ([i (in-naturals 1)]) (yield i)))) (define (filter pred g)
(generator () (for ([i (in-producer g #f)] #:when (pred i)) (yield i))))
(define (sift n g) (filter (λ(x) (not (zero? (modulo x n)))) g)) (define (sieve g)
(generator () (let loop ([g g]) (let ([x (g)]) (yield x) (loop (sift x g))))))
(define primes (begin (nats) (sieve nats))) (for/list ([i 25] [x (in-producer primes)]) x)</lang>
REXX
somewhat optimized
This is an open-ended approach and it's a simple implementation and could be optimized more with some easy programming.
The method used is to divided all odd numbers by all previous odd primes up to and including the √ of the odd number.
Usage note: by using a negative number (for the program's argument), the list of primes is suppressed, but the prime count is still shown. <lang rexx>/*REXX program lists a sequence of primes by testing primality by trial division. */ parse arg n . /*get optional number of primes to find*/ if n== | n=="," then n=26 /*Not specified? Then use the default.*/ tell= (n>0); n=abs(n) /*Is N negative? Then don't display.*/ @.1=2; if tell then say right(@.1, 9) /*display 2 as a special prime case. */
- =1 /*# is number of primes found (so far)*/
/* [↑] N: default lists up to 101 #s.*/ do j=3 by 2 while #<n /*start with the first odd prime. */ /* [↓] divide by the primes. ___ */ do k=2 to # while !.k<=j /*divide J with all primes ≤ √ J */ if j//@.k==0 then iterate j /*÷ by prev. prime? ¬prime ___ */ end /*j*/ /* [↑] only divide up to √ J */ #=#+1 /*bump the count of number of primes. */ @.#=j; !.#=j*j /*define this prime; define its square.*/ if tell then say right(j, 9) /*maybe display this prime ──► terminal*/ end /*j*/ /* [↑] only display N number of primes*/ /* [↓] display number of primes found.*/
say # ' primes found.' /*stick a fork in it, we're all done. */</lang> output using the default input of: 26
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 37 41 43 47 53 59 61 67 71 73 79 83 89 97 101 26 primes found.
more optimized
This version shows how the REXX program may be optimized further by extending the list of low primes and
the special low prime divisions (the // tests, which is the remainder when doing integer division).
<lang rexx>/*REXX program lists a sequence of primes by testing primality by trial division. */
parse arg n . /*get optional number of primes to find*/
if n== | n=="," then n=26 /*Not specified? Then assume default.*/
tell= (n>0); n=abs(n) /*N is negative? Then don't display. */
@.1=2; @.2=3; @.3=5; @.4=7; @.5=11; @.6=13; #=5; s=@.#+2
/* [↑] is the number of low primes.*/ do p=1 for # while p<=n /* [↓] find primes, but don't show 'em*/ if tell then say right(@.p, 9) /*display some pre-defined low primes. */ !.p=@.p**2 /*also compute the squared value of P. */ end /*p*/ /* [↑] allows faster loop (below). */ /* [↓] N: default lists up to 101 #s.*/ do j=s by 2 while #<n /*continue on with the next odd prime. */ if j// 3 ==0 then iterate /*is this integer a multiple of three? */ parse var j -1 _ /*obtain the last digit of the J var.*/ if _ ==5 then iterate /*is this integer a multiple of five? */ if j// 7 ==0 then iterate /* " " " " " " seven? */ if j//11 ==0 then iterate /* " " " " " " eleven?*/ /* [↓] divide by the primes. ___ */ do k=p to # while !.k<=j /*divide J by other primes ≤ √ J */ if j//@.k==0 then iterate j /*÷ by prev. prime? ¬prime ___ */ end /*k*/ /* [↑] only divide up to √ J */ #=#+1 /*bump the count of number of primes. */ @.#=j; !.#=j*j /*define this prime; define its square.*/ if tell then say right(j, 9) /*maybe display this prime ──► terminal*/ end /*j*/ /* [↑] only display N number of primes*/ /* [↓] display number of primes found.*/
say # ' primes found.' /*stick a fork in it, we're all done. */</lang>
output is the same as the 1st REXX version.

Ruby
The Prime class in the standard library has several Prime generators. In some methods it can be specified which generator will be used. The generator can be used on it's own: <lang ruby>require "prime"
pg = Prime::TrialDivisionGenerator.new p pg.take(10) # => [2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29] p pg.next # => 31</lang>
Scala
Odds-Only "infinite" primes generator using Streams and Co-Inductive Streams
Using Streams, the "unfaithful sieve", i.e. sub-optimal trial division sieve. <lang scala>def sieve(nums: Stream[Int]): Stream[Int] =
Stream.cons(nums.head, sieve((nums.tail).filter(_ % nums.head != 0))) val primes = 2 #:: sieve(Stream.from(3, 2))
println(primes take 10 toList) // //List(2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29) println(primes takeWhile (_ < 30) toList) //List(2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29)</lang>
- Output:
Both println statements give the same results
List(2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29)
The above code is extremely inefficient for larger ranges, both because it tests for primality using computationally expensive divide (modulo) operations and because it sets up deferred tests for division by all of the primes up to each prime candidate, meaning that it has approximately a square law computational complexity with range.

- Output:
[2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97]
Tcl
As we're generating a sequence of primes, we can use that sequence of primes to describe what we're filtering against. <lang tcl>set primes {} proc havePrime n {
global primes foreach p $primes {
# Do the test-by-trial-division if {$n/$p*$p == $n} {return false}
} return true
} for {set n 2} {$n < 100} {incr n} {
if {[havePrime $n]} {
lappend primes $n puts -nonewline "$n "
}
} puts ""</lang>
- Output:
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 37 41 43 47 53 59 61 67 71 73 79 83 89 97
zkl
The code in Extensible prime generator#zkl is a much better solution to this problem.
<lang zkl>fcn isPrime(p){
(p>=2) and (not [2 .. p.toFloat().sqrt()].filter1('wrap(n){ p%n==0 }))
} fcn primesBelow(n){ [0..n].filter(isPrime) }</lang> The Method filter1 stops at the first non False result, which, if there is one, is the first found diviser, thus short cutting the rest of the test. <lang zkl>primesBelow(100).toString(*).println();</lang>
- Output:
L(2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89,97)
