Prime number theorem via the explicit formula

Can the prime number theorem be obtained from the explicit formula, $\psi(x)=x-\sum_{\zeta(\rho)=0}\frac{x^\rho}{\rho}+O(1)$? Here, $\psi(x)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty\sum_{p^k<x}\log p$

Teaching prime number theorem in a complex analysis class for physicists

You can start by defining the Riemann Zeta function as $\zeta(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^s}$ for $s$ real and then prove the Euler product formula, $\zeta(s) = \prod_{p} \frac{1}{1-p^{-s}}$ for …
