COMMENTS

Second-order composite numbers.

Composites (A002808) with composite (A002808) subscripts. a(n) U A022449(n) = A002808(n). Subsequence of A175251 (composites (A002808) with nonprime (A018252) subscripts), a(n) = A175251(n+1) for n >= 1. [From Jaroslav Krizek (jaroslav.krizek(AT)atlas.cz), Mar 14 2010]

FORMULA

Let C(n) be the n-th composite number, with C(1)=4. Then these are numbers C(C(n)).

EXAMPLE

The 2nd composite number is 6 and the 6th composite number is 12, so a(2) = 12. a(100) = A002808(A002808(100)) = A002808(133) = 174.
