Please add a doctest where the input itself is a prime number. For example,

>>> sieve(29)
[2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29]

This is to clarify whether the algorithm includes the input number itself or not.

@tianyizheng02 corrected.

>>> sieve(2**3)
[2, 3, 5, 7]

>>> sieve(3**3)
[2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23]

>>> sieve()
Traceback (most recent call last):

I think it's fine to assume that the function will be called on the right number of inputs, so I don't think this test is necessary
