Count of Double Prime numbers in a given range L to R

Given two integers L and R, the task to find the number of Double Prime numbers in the range.
 

A number N is called double prime when the count of prime numbers in the range 1 to N (excluding 1 and including N) is also prime.

Examples: 
 

Input: L = 3, R = 10 
Output:
Explanation: 
For 3, we have the range 1, 2, 3, and count of prime number is 2 (which is also a prime no.) 
For 4, we have the range 1, 2, 3, 4, and count of a prime number is 2 (which is also a prime no.) 
For 5, we have the range 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and count of a prime number is 3 (which is also a prime no.) 
For 6, we have the range 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and count of prime numbers is 3 (which is also a prime no.) 
For 7, we have the range 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and count of prime numbers is 4 which is nonprime. 
Similarly for other numbers till R = 10, the count of prime numbers is nonprime. Hence the count of double prime numbers is 4.
Input: L = 4, R = 12 
Output:
Explanation: 
For the given range there are total 5 double prime numbers. 
 

 

Approach:
To solve the problem mentioned above we will use the concept of Sieve to generate prime numbers. 
 

Below is the implementation of the above approach:
 




// C++ program to find the count
// of Double Prime numbers
// in the range L to R
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Array to make Sieve
// where arr[i]=0 indicates
// non prime and arr[i] = 1
// indicates prime
int arr[1000001];
 
// Array to find double prime
int dp[1000001];
 
// Function to find the number
// double prime numbers in range
void count()
{
    int maxN = 1000000, i, j;
 
    // Assume all numbers as prime
    for (i = 0; i < maxN; i++)
        arr[i] = 1;
 
    arr[0] = 0;
    arr[1] = 0;
 
    for (i = 2; i * i <= maxN; i++) {
 
        // Check if the number is prime
        if (arr[i] == 1) {
 
            // check for multiples of i
            for (j = 2 * i; j <= maxN; j += i) {
 
                // Make all multiples of
                // ith prime as non-prime
                arr[j] = 0;
            }
        }
    }
 
    int cnt = 0;
 
    for (i = 0; i <= maxN; i++) {
        // Check if number at ith position
        // is prime then increment count
        if (arr[i] == 1)
            cnt++;
 
        if (arr[cnt] == 1)
 
            // Indicates count of numbers
            // from 1 to i that are
            // also prime and
            // hence double prime
            dp[i] = 1;
 
        else
            // If number is not a double prime
            dp[i] = 0;
    }
    for (i = 1; i <= maxN; i++)
        // finding cumulative sum
        dp[i] += dp[i - 1];
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int L = 4, R = 12;
    count();
    cout << dp[R] - dp[L - 1];
 
    return 0;
}
