Generator of prime numbers using the sieve of Eratosthenes.

    Note:
        Adapted from http://code.activestate.com/recipes/117119/

    Args:
        p_min (int): prime numbers lower than p_min will not be in the resulting primes
        p_max (int): the generator will stop when this value is reached, it means that there
            will be no prime bigger than this number in the resulting primes. If p_max
            is None, there will not be any upper limit

    Returns:
        A generator of all the consecutive primes between p_min and p_max

    Raises:
        TypeError: if p_min or p_max is not an integer
