#BlueBook code decryption
import sys
def sieve(n):
    x = [1] * n
    x[1] = 0
    for i in range(2,n/2):
            j = 2 * i
            while j < n:
                    x[j]=0
                    j = j+i
    return x

def prime(n,x):

国际游客在离开美国之前, 如何得到购物所付销售税的退税?

HOW CAN I GET SALES TAX REFUND IN TEXAS OF AMERICA?

国际旅客请注意,在你离开德克萨斯州和美国之前, 您可以得到您在德克萨斯州购物所付销售税的返还, 让您节省开销。 为使您能够具备返还的条件, 您在任何一个德克萨斯州免税购物地点办理退税时必需出示如下相关文件:

• 护照.
• I-94卡(白或绿色的卡, 入境时附在护照上的).
• 美国入境签证 (若是美国对您所在国有签证要求), 或是您居住国颁发的附有照片的有效身份证件。
• 登机牌/航班信息(电子机票有效), 它们显示您的旅程是从德克萨斯州前往您原居住国,(中间可以有任何经停); 若是您驾车离开德克萨斯州或美国, 则不需要出示登机牌。
• 原始的购物收据和所购商品以备核查。 * 除了网上购物, 任何电子邮件,重印件,复印件收据均不会被接受。若是您有其它疑问, 请参考我们网站上的相关问题解答. *提示: 有些重要物品, 建议您向店家索要双份的收据以备个人所需。办理退税手续必须要有原始收据。
• 所有商品必需是在您离境前30天内在德克萨斯州购买的。我们建议您最好在离境前的两个星期将所需商品买好, 以便有充裕的时间来办理退税。
• 您必须携带您所购商品一起离开德克萨斯州和美国。
• 在每个商店所购物品的税金至少要有$10以上才可以办理退税。 *提示: 在同一家商店的多张收据, 税金可以累加而达到和超过$10的最低限制。在同一购物中心的不同商店的购物金额累加起来, 也可以帮助您最大限度地得到相应的退税。请预先将您所有的收据整理好, 以帮助加快办理退税手续。
