Hey @lordninja_1997, you can read this solution if you are stuck.

Hope you may get a little hint.

Consider the test case

10 20

@sagars21 You should really see the problem statement, it’s not asking about printing the number which has prime number of set-bits rather it’s asking for number of primes in the given range [L, R] with as constraint 1 \leq (R - L) \leq 10^{5}.

@lordninja_1997 You need to use an updated version of Sieve of Eratosthenes known as Segemented Sieve.
Refer to the links for understanding Segmented Sieve:

  1. GeekforGeeks: Segmented Sieve of Eratosthenes.

  2. Stack Overflow Post .

Meanwhile I will update the post with my solution.

Thanks for Reading
Peace :v:
