Abstract
We prove the infinitude of prime numbers by the principle of contradiction, that is different from Euclid's proof in a way that it uses an explicit property of prime numbers. A sieve method that applies the inclusion-exclusion principle is used to give the property of the prime numbers in terms of the prime counting function.
