Oh gee; a bunch of tab literals snuck in there, which messed up
the formatting when posted.  :-(  With my apologies, here's a
fixed-up version.

--->BEGIN Primes.java<---
package literatePrimes;

public class Primes {
    // The algorithm used here comes from Dijkstra via Knuth.  The basic
    // idea is to special case 2, as the first (and only even) prime
    // number, and then step through the odd integers, testing each as
    // a candidate for primality.  A number is prime iff it is not
    // evenly divisible by any smaller prime.
    //
    // To understand how it works, observe that for any composite
    // number j, the smallest prime factor of j will be less than or
    // equal to sqrt(j).  Hence, when testing a candidate for primality,
    // we need not consider whether primes larger than the candidate's
    // square root evenly divide the candidate.  As the number of
    // generated primes grows, the number of primes smaller than the
    // square root grows much more slowly, cutting down on the search
    // space and yielding a considerable performance benefit.
    //
    // When iterating, we are only concerned about the odd primes,
    // so we only need to consider odd candidates starting from 3.  By
    // definition such candidates are not divisible by 2 and so the
    // problem of determining primality is reduced to determining whether
    // a is candidate odd and divisible by some other prime less than or
    // equal to the square root of the candidate.
    //
    // As a further optimization, we avoid division by maintaining an
    // auxilliary array of multiples of primes; that is, a table,
    // `primeMultiples` of multiples of primes p_n.  By maintaining the
    // invariant that, for a given candidate j and prime p_n,
    // primeMultiples[n] < j + 2*p_n, we can quickly test j for
    // divisibility by p_n: if primeMultiples[n] < j, then clearly the
    // invariant holds if we add 2*p_n to primeMultiples[n].  However,
    // if primeMultiples[n] >= j + 2*p_n, then p_n is a factor of j if
    // and only if primeMultiples[n] = j.
    //
    // Note that the factor of 2 in 2*p_n ensures that `primeMultiples[n]`
    // always remains odd, for n > 0: 2*odd is even, and odd+even is odd.
    //
    // To avoid the performance impact of computing square roots, we keep
    // track of the square of the prime that's square root is greater
    // than the square root of the current candidate, and we use this to
    // define an upper bound on multiples table entries that we must
    // use to test a candidate for divisibility.  When we have increased
    // the candidate value such that it becomes equal to this tracked
    // square value, we increase the bound by 1, reset the tracked square
    // to that of the prime now indexed by the new upper bound, and add
    // an entry to the primeMultiples table.  It is safe to refer to the
    // next such prime because we know from "Bertrand's Postulate" that,
    // for a given prime p_n, the next prime p_{n+1} < 2*p_n, and
    // 2*p_n < p_n^2 for p_nn > 2, so such a prime must already have been
    // generated.  Therefore, we simply add the next prime's square to the
    // table as the first multiple of p_{n+1} and set `square` to that
    // same value.
