This // example returns their count. // // METHOD // Keep a composite marker array. For each unmarked p up to the square root, mark multiples // starting at p squared; smaller multiples were already handled. Count the remaining // unmarked values from two onward. // // COMPLEXITY // O(n log log n) time and O(n) auxiliary space. // // CONTRACT // n >= 0. Returns the number of primes <= n. The marker array requires memory proportional // to n. // 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 // C99: checked calloc/free workspace, const input pointers, explicit size_t lengths. Errors // return INT_MIN with errno=EINVAL, ERANGE, or ENOMEM. Check errno before using a result. // Input/output arrays must not alias. No variable-length stack arrays. // // EXAMPLE // Expected return: 4. // Run: gcc -std=c99 -O2 example.c -o example && ./example // Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source // archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes. static int alg_min(int a, int b) { return a < b ? a : b; } static int alg_max(int a, int b) { return a > b ? a : b; } static int alg_checked(int64_t v, int *error) { if (v < INT_MIN || v > INT_MAX) { *error = 1; return 0; } return (int)v; } static int alg_add(int a, int b, int *e) { return alg_checked((int64_t)a+b,e); } static int alg_sub(int a, int b, int *e) { return alg_checked((int64_t)a-b,e); } static int alg_mul(int a, int b, int *e) { return alg_checked((int64_t)a*b,e); } int sieve_count(int n) { int alg_error = 0; int alg_result = INT_MIN; errno = 0; int *composite = NULL; if (!(((n >= 0) && (n <= 1000000)))) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } { int alg_length = alg_add(n, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_length < 0 || alg_length > 4000000) { errno = EINVAL; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } composite = calloc((size_t)(alg_length ? alg_length : 1), sizeof(*composite)); if (!composite) { errno = ENOMEM; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } int p = 2; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } int multiple = 0; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } int count = 0; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } while (1) { int alg_condition = (p <= (n / p)); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!alg_condition) break; int alg_condition_1 = (composite[p] == 0); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_condition_1) { multiple = alg_mul(p, p, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } while (1) { int alg_condition = (multiple <= n); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!alg_condition) break; composite[multiple] = 1; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } multiple = alg_add(multiple, p, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } } p = alg_add(p, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } p = 2; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } while (1) { int alg_condition = (p <= n); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (!alg_condition) break; int alg_condition_2 = (composite[p] == 0); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } if (alg_condition_2) { count = alg_add(count, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } p = alg_add(p, 1, &alg_error); if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } } alg_result = count; if (alg_error) { errno = ERANGE; alg_result = INT_MIN; goto alg_cleanup; } goto alg_cleanup; alg_cleanup: free(composite); return alg_result; } int main(void) { int n = 10; int result = sieve_count(n); printf("%d\n", result); if (errno) { perror("algorithm"); return 1; } return 0; } |
