1. In his excellent book on programming, Programming Pearls (Bentley 2000), Jon Bentley discusses the solution to a programming problem that involves using a BitArray, although he calls it a bit vector in his book. Read about the problem at the following web site: https://www.cs.belllabs.com/cm/cs/pearls/cto.html and design your own solution to at least the data storage problem using VB.NET. Of course, you don't have to use a file as large as the one used in the book, just pick something that adequately tests your implementation.
2. Write a program that compares the times for both the BitArray implementation of the Sieve of Eratosthenes and the standard array implementation. What are your results?
