I think we don't want to optimize it like this to keep its original algorithm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_of_Eratosthenes#Algorithm_and_variants

It is the same algorithm, but since 2 is the only even prime, you can check it seperately and remove unnecessary tests

Describe your change:
I removed a duplicate of sieve of eratosthenes in favour of the older one, and improved the older one by iterating by 2 elements each time and removing the math dependency
