primal 0.2.2

`primal` puts raw power into prime numbers. This crates includes: optimised prime sieves, checking for primality, enumerating primes, factorising numbers, and state-of-the-art estimation of upper and lower bounds for π(n) (the number of primes below n) and p_k (the k-th prime).

`primal` puts raw power into prime numbers.

This crates includes

- optimised prime sieves
- checking for primality
- enumerating primes
- factorising numbers
- estimating upper and lower bounds for π(*n*) (the number of primes
  below *n*) and *p<sub>k</sub>* (the <i>k</i>th prime)

This uses a state-of-the-art cache-friendly Sieve of Eratosthenes
to enumerate the primes up to some fixed bound (in a memory
efficient manner), and then allows this cached information to be
used for things like enumerating and counting primes.

`primal` takes around 2.8 seconds and less than 3MB of RAM to
count the exact number of primes below 10<sup>10</sup> (455052511)
on the author's laptop (i7-3517U).
