The video tutorial explains the Sieve of Eratosthenes, an algorithm to find all prime numbers up to a given number. It starts with a classic implementation, marking non-prime numbers by crossing out multiples. The tutorial then explores optimizations, such as skipping even numbers and using the square root for iteration. Further enhancements are achieved using NumPy, significantly reducing runtime. The video concludes with a discussion on memory usage and encourages familiarity with NumPy for efficient algorithm implementation.
