Count Primes
Count the number of prime numbers less than a non-negative number, n.
Example:
Input: 10
Output: 4
Explanation: There are 4 prime numbers less than 10, they are 2, 3, 5, 7.
class Solution {
public int countPrimes(int n) {
// Create a boolean array "prime[0..n]" and initialize
// all entries it as true. A value in prime[i] will
// finally be false if i is Not a prime, else true.
boolean prime[] = new boolean[n + 1];
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
prime[i] = true;
for (int p = 2; p * p <= n; p++) {
// If prime[p] is not changed, then it is a prime
if (prime[p] == true)
// Update all multiples of p
for (int i = p * p; i <= n; i += p)
prime[i] = false;
}
int count = 0;
// Print all prime numbers
for (int i = 2; i <= n; i++) {
if (prime[i] == true)
count++;
}
return count;
}
}
