// Segmented Sieve in C++
//
// PURPOSE
// A segmented sieve marks composites only inside a requested interval, reducing memory
// compared with sieving all the way to its upper endpoint.
//
// METHOD
// Sieve base primes up to square root of high. For each prime, mark its multiples in
// [low,high], starting no earlier than p squared. Count unmarked values at least two.
//
// COMPLEXITY
// O(sqrt(high) log log high + (high-low+1) log log high) time, O(sqrt(high)+high-low+1)
// space.
//
// CONTRACT
// 0 <= low <= high <= 1000000. Returns number of primes in the inclusive interval.
// Public APIs infer array lengths except in C, which accepts pointer/length pairs. Vertex
// counts and matrix dimensions remain explicit. Arrays must contain signed 32-bit integers.
// Sorted order, correct tree topology, and caller-owned data-structure invariants are
// preconditions; checking them on every query would change query complexity.
// Scalar and shape checks are included. Value-range checks are included where needed to
// prevent invalid indexing or nontermination. Allocation sizes are capped at 4,000,000
// workspace entries. Arithmetic outside Python raises an error on 32-bit overflow; Python
// uses arbitrary precision. Native allocation failures propagate. In-place outputs may be
// partly updated after arithmetic failure. These are single-threaded, in-memory
// implementations.
//
// LANGUAGE DETAILS
// C++17: const vector references for inputs, mutable references for outputs, RAII workspace,
// standard lower_bound for LIS. Invalid inputs throw invalid_argument; overflow throws
// overflow_error; allocation failure propagates bad_alloc.
//
// EXAMPLE
// Expected return: 6.
// Run: g++ -std=c++17 -O2 example.cpp -o example && ./example
// Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source
// archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes.
