You're trying to create a list with over 600 billion items. sys.maxsize is a bit over 2 billion for 32-bit CPython, but switching to 64-bit won't help unless you have a few terabytes of memory (8 bytes per pointer). You need to rethink your approach to generating primes. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
