Take next number, M say, that has not been crossed off. Counting through the numbers that have not yet been crossed off after that M, cross off every 5-th term. Repeat, always crossing off every 5-th term of those that remain. The numbers that are left form the sequence. %D A100586 "Sieves", Popular Computing (Calabasas, CA), Vol. 2 (No. 13, Apr 1974), pp. 6-7; sieve #6 (K=5). %H A100586 Index entries for sequences generated by sieves %t A100586 t = Range[3, 80000]; r = {}; While[Length[t] > 0, AppendTo[r, First[t]]; t = Drop[t, {1, -1, 5}];]; r - from Ray Chandler (rayjchandler(AT)sbcglobal.net), Dec 02 2004 %Y A100586 Cf.
