{wiki=Larger_sieve}
The Larger Sieve, commonly known in the context of number theory, refers to an advanced mathematical technique used for determining the properties of integers, particularly in relation to prime numbers. It is an extension of the Sieve of Eratosthenes and is particularly useful in analytic number theory and areas dealing with the distribution of prime numbers.
