want to know the complexity of my program ,new way to find prime numbers
Code:
//simply we are going to use the approach that the numbers that are divisble by prime numbers are not prime and the others are prime.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
int main()
{
int n,i,arr[100000],size=0,j,temp; // array is for storing prime numbers
scanf("%d",&n); // we will be finding prime numbers between 2 to n (both inclusive)
arr[0]=2; // we know that 2 is a prime number
size++; // we got 1 prime number so size of array gets incremented
for(i=3;i<=n;i++)
{
temp=pow(i,0.5); //square root of the number (for which we are going to check is it prime or not)
for(j=0;arr[j]<=temp;j++){
if(i%arr[j]==0)
break;
}
if(arr[j]>temp)
{
arr[size]=i;
size++;
}
}
for(i=0;i<size;i++)
printf("%d \n",arr[i]);
return 0;
}

It would help if you used CODE tags around the code snippets and proper indentations within the code blocks!

Your algorithm is known as "trial division" (with primes as candidate factors). According to this paper (see page 4 about 10 lines from the bottom),
https://www.cs.hmc.edu/~oneill/papers/Sieve-JFP.pdf
the complexity is Θ(n√n / (log n)^2).
