%N Numbers k such that 24k + 1 is neither square nor prime.

%C Conjecture: sequence contains arbitrarily long runs of consecutive integers.

%C First runs with lengths 1..4 are 6; 20, 21; 29, 30, 31; 58, 59, 60, 61.

%C Records in run lengths are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 13, 17, 20, 23, 32, 33, 36, 40, 41, 43, 48, 49, 52, 69, 77, 89, 97, 99, 108, 126, 135, 148, 149

%C with corresponding first terms of runs: 6, 20, 29, 58, 148, 163, 378, 449, 936, 1675, 5740, 7075, 15915, 35545, 112303, 229944, 469454, 628921, 775480, 902518, 1003826, 1208039, 12542948, 29223210, 33015691, 224430268, 260333109, 530363391, 3713119689, 7962252405, 9312173798.

%C Conjecture is easy to prove using the Chinese Remainder Theorem and the fact that the gaps between squares grow. - _Robert Israel_, Jan 25 2018
