==Sieve vs trial division.==
Hi, I note that you just removed the incorrect flags on [[Sieve of Eratosthenes‎]] without changing the algorithm. If it isn't a true Sieve then the incorrect flag should be put back until the code is updated, or the code removed. The task specifies that a particular algorithm should be used in the finding of primes. Thanks. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 14:08, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
 
Paddy3118: I changed it with an explicit mention of the algorithm, with a mention of the Scala alternative that does the exact same thing (without an incorrect flag) and I also added a reference to the same paper that is cited in the Scala section.
(Sorry if there's some other way to communicate replies.)
