\section{Description of the used algorithm}
Sieve of Eratosthenes is used to find all prime numbers below certain limit Lets call this limit $n$ \\ 
It starts with number 2, which is the first prime number and marks all multiplies of this number (up to predefined limit) as composite (not prime), those numbers will be later ignored \\ 
Then it takes next available number (3) and does the same thing \\ 
This is repeated until there are no more numbers below the limit which are neither prime nor crossed out \\ 
Then we return the list of all non-crossed out (prime) numbers \\ 
We used more optimized version of this algorithm and cross out composites only up to $\sqrt{n}$ in the main loop \\ 
\section{Functional description of the application}
First we define the limit, we name this limit as $num$ which will decide how many numbers we will check, either by user interface or we hard code it in \\ 
We define boolean list which will be used to distinguish between prime and composite numbers \\ 
We start with number 2 and assign it to variable named $p$ \\ 
Then we calculate the primes using Sieve of Eratosthenes using nested while loops \\ 
External loop goes through numbers smaller than $\sqrt(num)$, starting with current value of $p$ \\ 
It checks if the number we are currently was checked out by checking the value of boolean table \\ 
if it was not checked out it gets a new number which is the $p$ multiplied by 2, then it goes into inner loop \\ 
inner loop sets all multiplicities of $p$ as crossed out by setting their value in boolean table to false \\ 
then we increment the $p$ and the whole loop repeats until we run out of numbers \\ 
we return array of prime numbers to function which prints those numbers 

\subsection{Input data format}
There is single input, variable named $num$ which is the upper limit of numbers to checked \\ 
It is a simple int variable, it cannot be less than 2 and has to be a whole number. 
\subsection{Output text on console}
As an output we put out all input prompts which ask for an upper limit, and the list of prime numbers found by our algorithm. 
\subsection{Format of output data}
Output data is a string
