A257322 Construct spiral of numbers on square grid as in Comments; sequence gives terms along the "3" arm. 4

%I #12 Apr 27 2015 10:37:28

%S 3,2,7,3,5,7,3,7,3,2,11,3,11,3,2,5,2,7,2,7,2,11,2,5,7,3,5,7,2,11,3,5,

%T 3,5,3,5,3,7,3,7,5,7,3,7,3,2,5,2,5,2,7,2,7,2,3,11,3,2,5,2,5,2,5,7,3,5,

%U 7,2,7,2,7,2,7,2,5,11,7,3,7,3,7,3,5,3,5

%N Construct spiral of numbers on square grid as in Comments; sequence gives terms along the "3" arm.

%C Place numbers 2,3,5,7 clockwise around a grid point (see illustrations in links). Divide grid into four spiral arms.

%C Extend each arm one step at a time, in rotation: first the 2 arm, then the 3 arm, then the 5 arm, then the 7 arm, then the 2 arm, etc.

%C Rule for extending: next term in arm is smallest number such that each cell in the grid is relatively prime to its eight neighbors.

%C Repetitions in arms are permitted.

%C The four arms are A257321, A257322, A257323, A257324.
