Number.toEratosthenes

A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that can be divided without remainder only by itself and by 1. Natural numbers n that can be divided by a number less than n and greater than 1 are composite numbers. Sieve of Eratosthenes identifies all prime numbers up to a given number n. The algorithm works as follows: write the numbers 1, 2, 3,4 ,..., n and will eliminate composites by marking them (initially all numbers are unmarked). This is exactly what the method does using bitwise operations.

        $('f').addEvent('submit', function(e){
            if(e) {e.stop();}
            var n = $('n').get('value').toInt(); 
            if(!n) {return false;}
               var vec = [];
                   vec = (n).toEratosthenes(); 
               if(window.console){console.log(vec);} 
               var s = ''; 
                   for(var i=0;i<vec.length;i++) {
                       s += vec[i] + ', ';
                   } 
                   $('primenumbers').set('text',s);
         }); 
         $('f').fireEvent('submit');  
    });         
 })(document.id);
