%C First edition of Washington incorrectly gives a(44) = h-(Q(zeta_59)) = 41421. [_Matthew Johnson_, Jul 20 2013]

%F a(n) = A061653(A042965(n+1)). - _M. F. Hasler_, Feb 04 2009

%e n=17: the 17th number not == 2 mod 4 is 23, and Q(zeta_23) = 3 is the first time that h- is bigger than 1, so a(17) = 3.
