Prime numbers program

Question

I\'m currently trying out some questions just to practice my programming skills. ( Not taking it in school or anything yet, self taught ) I came across this problem which re

Answer 1

I'm trying to improve my functional programming at the moment so I just coded up the sieve quickly. I figure I'll post it here. If you're still learning, you might find it interesting, too.

#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 

using namespace std;

class is_multiple : public binary_function
{
    public:
        bool operator()(int value, int test) const
        {
            if(value == test) // do not remove the first value
                return false;
            else
                return (value % test) == 0;
        }
};

int main() 
{
    list numbersToTest;
    int input = 500;

    // add all numbers to list
    for(int x = 1; x < input; x++)
        numbersToTest.push_back(x);

    // starting at 2 go through the list and remove all multiples until you reach the squareroot
    // of the last element in the list
    for(list::iterator itr = ++numbersToTest.begin(); *itr < sqrt((float) input); itr++)
    {
        int tmp = *itr;
        numbersToTest.remove_if(bind2nd(is_multiple(), *itr));  
        itr = find(numbersToTest.begin(), numbersToTest.end(), tmp); //remove_if invalidates iterator 
                                                                 // so find it again. kind of ugly
    }

    // output primes
    for(list::iterator itr = numbersToTest.begin(); itr != --numbersToTest.end(); itr++)
        cout << *itr << "\t";

    system("PAUSE");

    return 0;
}

Any advice on how to improve this would be welcome by the way.
