In this program, we are going to share a C++ program to print primes smaller than n using Sieve of Sundaram. If you are a beginner and want to start learning the C++ programming, then keep your close attention in this tutorial as I am going to share a program for C++ program to print primes smaller than n using Sieve of Sundaram.
Copy the below C++ program and execute it with the help of GCC compiler. At the end of this program, We have shared the output of this program.

Remaining primes are of the form // 2*i + 1 such that marked[i] is false. for (int i=1; i<=nNew; i++) if (marked[i] == false) cout << 2*i + 1 << " "; } // Driver program to test above int main(void) { int n = 20; SieveOfSundaram(n); return 0; } |
