A faster solution for Project Euler question 10

I have solved the question 10 regarding sum of all primes under 2 million, however my code takes over a few minutes to calculate the result.

I was just wondering if there is any way to optimise it to make it run faster ?

  • The code takes an upper limit
  • Generates an array
  • Iterates through it and removes multiples of a number, replacing it with 0
  • Takes that filtered array and loops through the next non zero number
  • Increases this number till it is sqrt of the limit.
  • Prints out what is left.
import numpy as np


def sievePrime(n):
    array = np.arange(2, n)

    tempSieve = [2]

    for value in range(2, int(np.floor(np.sqrt(n)))):
        if tempSieve[value - 2] != value:
            continue
        else:
            for x in range(len(array)):
                if array[x] % value == 0 and array[x] != value:
                    array[x] = 0
                    tempSieve = array

    return sum(array)


print(sievePrime(2000000))

Thank you for your time.

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
