EXAMPLE
|
For n=6, we start iterating from k = ((6+1)^2)-1 = 48, and then 48 - A002828(48) = 45, 45 - A002828(45) = 43, 43 - A002828(43) = 40, 40 - A002828(40) = 38, and 38 - A002828(38) = 35 (which is 6^2 - 1), and when we subtract one from each, only 47 and 37 are primes, thus a(6) = 2.
For n=7, we start iterating from k = ((7+1)^2)-1 = 63, and 63 -> 59, 59 -> 56, 56 -> 53, 53 -> 51, 51 -> 48 (which is 7^2 - 1), and subtracting one from each of 63, 59, 56, 53 and 51, doesn't yield a prime for any, thus a(7)=0. (Note that even though 48-1 = 47 is a prime, it is not included in the count for n=7).
