Change Log ========== - v0.1: Initial release - Basic prime calculation. - Uses a growing vector of known primes and gets the modulus of the number divided by these primes. - Uses type `long long' to hold prime numbers. - v0.2: Multi-Precision - Switch to C. - Uses GNU Multiple Precision library (GMP) to hold prime numbers, allowing for 'infinite' size. - Add `likely()' and `unlikely()' macros to optimize. - v0.2.1: Memory Leak Fixes - Fixed a major memory leak at the end of the program. - Added more optimizers. - v0.3: Optimizations - Algorithm skips half the known primes. - Removed `likely()' and `unlikely()' macros due to lack of information. - Improved performance. - v0.4: Fixed Algorithm - Fixed algorithm to actually calculate primes. - Added extra C99 optimizations. - v0.5: Minor Changes - Use `size_t' instead of `unsigned long long int'. - Minor optimizations to the algorithm. - Added commandline argument parsing. - v0.6: User Control - Allow user to choose base in which the prime numbers are printed. - Give option for primes to be saved to a file upon exit. - Free memory and leave instead of emergency exit. - v0.7: Data Saving - Allow user to save found primes to be loaded later. - User can save and read primes in raw output. - v1.0: Parallelization - Now completely parallelized. - Cleaned up/organized the code-base - Exporting files uses less memory - Allow searching for the nth prime number - Clearing some memory leaks - v2.0: Linked List - Code cleanup. - Replace OpenMP code with OpenMPI. - Use linked list for prime storage.
