Decomposition of natural numbers linked to sieve of Eratosthenes

Original: The decomposition into weight × level + jump of natural numbers is the sieve of Eratosthenes # decompwlj # math # Eratos

A mathematical claim is circulating that the decomposition of natural numbers into weight × level + jump is equivalent to the sieve of Eratosthenes, the classical ancient Greek algorithm for finding prime numbers. The idea, shared under the shorthand decompwlj, is drawing attention among math enthusiasts discussing prime number generation methods.

Why now: unclear
