+# Instructions
+
+Your task is to create a program that implements the Sieve of Eratosthenes algorithm to find prime numbers.
+
+A prime number is a number that is only divisible by 1 and itself.
+For example, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13 are prime numbers.
+
+The Sieve of Eratosthenes is an ancient algorithm that works by taking a list of numbers and crossing out all the numbers that aren't prime.
+
+A number that is **not** prime is called a "composite number".
+
+To use the Sieve of Eratosthenes, you first create a list of all the numbers between 2 and your given number.
+Then you repeat the following steps:
+
+1. Find the next unmarked number in your list. This is a prime number.
+2. Mark all the multiples of that prime number as composite (not prime).
+
+You keep repeating these steps until you've gone through every number in your list.
+At the end, all the unmarked numbers are prime.
+
+~~~~exercism/note
+[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.

+# Introduction
+
+You bought a big box of random computer parts at a garage sale.
+You've started putting the parts together to build custom computers.
+
+You want to test the performance of different combinations of parts, and decide to create your own benchmarking program to see how your computers compare.
+You choose the famous "Sieve of Eratosthenes" algorithm, an ancient algorithm, but one that should push your computers to the limits.
