%C Smallest prime coprime to n.

%C Smallest k >= 2 coprime to n.

%C a(#(p-1)) = a(A034386(p-1)) = p is the first appearance of prime p in sequence.

%C a(A005408(n)) = 2; for n > 2: a(n) = A112484(n,1). - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Sep 23 2011

%C Average value is 2.920050977316134... = A249270. - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Nov 02 2013

%C Differs from A236454, "smallest number not dividing n^2", for the first time at n=210, where a(210)=11 while A236454(210)=8. A235921 lists all n for which a(n) differs from A236454. - _Antti Karttunen_, Jan 26 2014

%F a(n) = A071222(n-1)+1. [Because the right hand side computes the smallest k >= 2 such that gcd(n,k) = gcd(n-1,k-1) which is equal to the smallest k >= 2 coprime to n] - _Antti Karttunen_, Jan 26 2014
