Nth prime number
Return the nth prime number, 1-indexed (so the 1st prime is 2, the 6th is 13). Assume 1 <= n <= 10000. You do not know the value of the nth prime in advance, so you must size your sieve adaptively or grow it until you have collected enough primes.

[6]out13What a strong answer looks like
State your approach and its time/space complexity out loud before you optimize. Handle the edge cases (empty input, duplicates, overflow), and say why you chose this over the brute force. Green tests are the floor, not the grade.
