A binary search algorithm finds an item in a list by repeatedly splitting it in half, only keeping the half which contains the item we're looking for.
It allows us to quickly narrow down the possible locations of our item until we find it, or until we've eliminated all possible locations.

Binary search only works when a list has been sorted.

If we ever colonize Mars or some other planet, measuring time is going to get even messier.
If someone says "year" do they mean a year on Earth or a year on Mars?
The idea for this exercise came from the science fiction novel ["A Deepness in the Sky"][vinge-novel] by author Vernor Vinge.
In it the author uses the metric system as the basis for time measurements.

Pangram comes from Greek, παν γράμμα, pan gramma, which means "every letter".
The best known English pangram is:

A rational number is defined as the quotient of two integers `a` and `b`, called the numerator and denominator, respectively, where `b != 0`.

```exercism/note
~~~~exercism/note
Note that mathematically, the denominator can't be zero.
However in many implementations of rational numbers, you will find that the denominator is allowed to be zero with behaviour similar to positive or negative infinity in floating point numbers.
In those cases, the denominator and numerator generally still can't both be zero at once.

The absolute value `|r|` of the rational number `r = a/b` is equal to `|a|/|b|`.

[Wikipedia's Sieve of Eratosthenes article][eratosthenes] has a useful graphic that explains the algorithm.
The tests don't check that you've implemented the algorithm, only that you've come up with the correct list of primes.
A good first test is to check that you do not use division or remainder operations.
